Managing the fallout of the multicrisis on populations

Humanitarian Assistance Digital Infrastructure

  • COMMIT GLOBAL
  • Europe
  • Scale-up project

Project presentation

Commit Global built and deployed in record time the digital infrastructure Ukrainian refugees needed if entering Romania (EU country with the longest border with Ukraine). The ecosystem ensures:
  • accurate official information on entering & staying in Romania
  • the authorities with necessary digital infrastructure for aid management
  • access to healthcare for the chronically ill
  • management tools for NGOs
  • access to education
  • access to psychological aid
We built a coalition of partners (Romanian Government, UNHCR, IOM & relevant NGOs) With the help of Commit Global’s 2500+ volunteers in three days Dopomoha.ro was live ensuring Mission 1: access to information (used by over 500.000+ refugees so far). Missions 2 and 3 were achieved in the next couple of weeks ensuring access of refugees to critical support: housing, aid, transport, healthcare. We are currently working on Missions 4,5,6.

Organization presentation

With almost 3000 members and collaborators, Commit Global is the largest civic tech community outside the US and, considering the number of digital tools launched and functional, the most productive. We design, build and maintain the public digital infrastructure that solves societal pain points. Since we work open source, our ever growing library of open code helps any civic organization in the world to solve societal problems with technology.

Impact

We estimate that 1,1M people found support so far through our humanitarian assistance infrastructure. Among others, our institutional partners are the Romanian Government, UNCHR, UNICEF, OIM, RNCR.
