Well Being
We also found that family members used technology to communicate about the well-being of others. For example, two rural participants reported calling their children in urban areas of Kenya as well as in other countries abroad with a focus on understanding their well-being, e.g., troubling times, health issues. This also occurred for six urban participants. Thus, this practice was limited and only occurred for people who were considered to be in a better economic situation. It was also more secondary in terms of importance when compared to communication around economic support.
