Information is one of the first casualties of displacement crises. The OKA mobile phone app fills part of this knowledge gap by providing up to date geolocated data on federal-level public services in Brazil and beyond for voluntary and forced migrants. The services covered include housing, education, health, social and legal assistance, communities, employment, and emergencies.
