Instructions
For authors to be presented as posters
  1. Format of posters is A0 in portrait orientation (84.1 cm width x 118.9 cm height, or 33.1 inches x 46.8 inches).
  2. You need to print the poster on your own.
  3. As you can see from the program, each conference poster is exhibited for one full day on October 7 (the first day of the conference) and each challenge poster is exhibited October 8 (the second day of the conference). You are welcome to set up your poster at any time between 8:30 (when the venue opens) and the end of the first coffee break (at 10:45). The official time allocated for attendees to browse posters is from 12:45 to 14:00 on Oct 7 and 12:15-13:30 on Oct 8, and we encourage you to stand by your poster during that time, after grabbing your lunch. You should remove your poster by the end of the day.
For authors accepted for presentation as a talk
  1. Each talk will be allocated 12 minutes plus 3 minutes for Q&A. We will have to enforce a strict compliance with timing due to a fairly packed program, so please make sure that you stay in the allotted 12 minutes with your presentation.
  2. Prepare a PDF file with your slides and we will share a link for you to upload your presentation.
  3. Note that NetMob 2024 will be a fully in-person event, and we do not have options for remote presentation.

Can we do policy impact evaluation using mobile phone data in low data settings?
abstract: Drawing on experience from two studies focused on Colombia, this talk will discuss the potential and challenges of policy impact evaluation using mobile phone data in low data settings. The first centres on the impact of covid lockdown policies (which varied by city in Colombia) on mobility patterns, and the second on the impact of opening of a new cable car in a poor peripheral area of Bogota.
