Internet.org App Launches in Colombia

Today, at an event in Bogotá, Colombia, Mark Zuckerberg and President Juan Manuel Santos announced the availability of Facebook’s Internet.org app for Tigo customers in Colombia.

Through the app, Tigo customers in Colombia will have free access to government services including: Instituto Colombiano para la Evaluación de la Educación, an education assessment service and Agronet, a service that provides information on agriculture and rural development.

The full list of free services includes:

Making the internet accessible through a set of basic services can lead to more people getting online and discovering services they might not have otherwise. We’ll continue to add additional services and bring the app to other parts of the world.
