Nokia partners with ONE to fight extreme poverty

Images captured on Nokia Lumia devices help spread the word of progress

London, UK – Leveraging the power of mobile technology, Nokia has partnered with The ONE Campaign to support their mission of ending extreme poverty around the world. ONE’s new music-based campaign, agit8, launches today to showcase the incredible progress that has been made in the fight and to amplify the call for action. Extreme poverty has been cut in half in the last 20 years, and the facts show that it can be virtually eliminated by 2030 – but only if we act now. The campaign includes a digital music platform featuring new video recordings of classic protest songs, a new film that will be projected on the iconic façade of the Tate Modern in London and impromptu live performances. As the visual voice of this once-in-a-lifetime global media campaign, Nokia is helping spread the word via images captured around the world.

Evocative images taken by prominent photojournalists, bloggers, amateur photographers and celebrities across the world using Nokia’s Lumia 920 smartphone will be projected onto the Tate Modern the evenings of 11-13 June. Moreover Nokia is encouraging its community to make their voices heard by capturing and sharing images, stories and experiences that support ONE’s “Progress via Protest” theme. The images, inspired by protest songs, are available to view and can be shared on Twitter using the official hashtag #nokiaxONECampaign or uploaded to Nokia’s official Facebook page (facebook.com/Nokia).

“A shared belief in connecting people has facilitated this exciting and dynamic partnership,” said John Nichols, Global Brand Director at Nokia. “With our leading-edge imaging technology, and the power of photos to help raise awareness of world issues, and bring people together, we are committed to help spread the mission of this incredible organization.”

ONE will use the high-quality photography generated by Nokia users to inspire millions of people to support their on-going grassroots advocacy work targeting extreme poverty and preventable diseases around the world. Visitors to one.org/protestsongs will find beautiful photography powered by Nokia alongside a diverse array of artists putting their own spin on classic protest songs. The site will include video performances from everyone from internationally-known artists to street buskers, and gives users the opportunity to add their voice to the fight against extreme poverty

“Advocacy at its core is a collective experience, a movement, that is meant to be shared with others,” said Jeff Davidoff, Chief Marketing Officer of ONE. “People share their experiences through pictures, making Nokia the perfect partner for our members to connect and campaign against extreme poverty.”

Windows Phone 8 meets Nokia Lumia 820

Welcome to the latest version of Microsoft’s operating system – Windows Phone 8.

Packed with new features, Windows Phone 8 is designed to make your work life easier, keeping everything you need in one place, whether it’s your email, Microsoft Office documents or your social media.

Windows 8 has been designed specifically to work across all of your gadgets, allowing you to seamlessly move information between your computer, tablet and phone, and with Microsoft’s cloud based storage SkyDrive, you’re able to access uploaded documents wherever you are, without taking up space on your device’s memory.

Sleek Design

The Nokia Lumia 820 takes full advantage of the new Windows Phone 8 operating system, with a  4.3” screen displaying the sleek design and a 1.5GHz Dual Core Snapdragon S4 processor delivering super-fast transitions between screens and apps.

Office On The Go

With full Microsoft Office support, the Nokia Lumia 820 is also the perfect office on the go, enabling you to view and edit PowerPoint, Excel and Word documents wherever you are and share them via email or upload them to SkyDrive to access them anywhere.

All In One Place

The email on the handset is both clever and simple to use; link to your work and personal accounts with full Outlook support and the ability to link any other email account you have, keeping all of your updates in one place. Emails are automatically grouped so that you can easily follow those complicated threads, and viewing PDFs or attached documents is fast, easy and intuitive.

Find Your Way

Nokia Drive is a truly innovative navigation tool for when you’re out travelling, not only offering free turn by turn voice-guided navigation, but speed and traffic alerts help you get to your destination faster. Even better, it works offline, which not only save you money on data charges, but means you’ll never have to worry about losing signal at a crucial junction.

One very thoughtful feature is the ‘Kids Corner’, which allows you to set up an area on your phone specifically for your kids (with apps, games etc) and ensuring that they aren’t able to send messages or make calls to all of your important contacts.

Future Thinking

You can charge your Lumia 820 wirelessly simply by resting it on a wireless charging plate, doing away with fiddly connections and wires, however this isn’t the only thing your phone can do wirelessly – NFC (Near Field Communication) is another really interesting feature. It enables you to transfer data to other NFC devices with a touch and make contactless payments in a growing number of stores. This makes file sharing incredibly simple and smooth and opens the phone up to a huge range of possibilities as the technology becomes more commonplace in everyday life.

CONCLUSION

While the new Nokia Lumia 820 will come with full Windows Phone 8, all is not lost for those with previous versions of the Lumia family – Nokia are planning to upgrade the Windows Phone 7.5 operating system to Windows Phone 7.8 which will offer all of the features of Windows Phone 8 apart from those which are hardware dependant, such as NFC, so you’ll soon be able to experience this beautifully designed and incredibly intuitive interface too!
