Mind the Gap. Leave No One and Place Behind

 
 
 

How do you get the Ambulance to reach you when your street has no name, and your house has no number? Or, when the lack of a basic address renders you incapable of opening a bank account or gives you no access to water or electricity?

#WorldHabitatDay 2022 (WHD 2022) under the theme "Mind the Gap. Leave No One and Place Behind" looks at the problem of growing inequality and challenges in cities and human settlements. The day is designated to reflect on the state of our habitats, and on the basic right of all to adequate shelter. One of the biggest challenges affiliated with the growing urban settlement is the lack of addresses which serves as a starting point for socio-economic inequalities across Africa.

SnooCODE plays a critical role in responding to the address crisis, or rather the lack of it by providing a next generation location-based solution to supercharge core citizen centric services such as Banking, Logistics, utilities, Emergency and Public Health services. Our product provides citizens of the developing world with their own generated, unique address which opens new opportunities and evens the playing field for many, hence, closing the gap and promoting an inclusive future for all. 

The Day is also intended to remind the world that we all have the power and the responsibility to shape the future of our cities and towns. Download the SnooCODE app now to generate your own unique address for FREE!
