With a purpose of providing awareness about Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM), this dedicated app is targeted for businesses (especially women-led) and consumers to enhance their disaster resilience through preparedness and get help at the time of actual disasters.
The app provides disaster-related information (in the form of text, links, videos, images, audio). To make the information more clear, it is segregated disaster type-wise as well as disaster stage-wise. We have envisioned this app to be more of an interactive platform that can guide users in case they actually encounter a disaster. Based on the disaster type the user has encountered, the app will provide relevant information and instruction to get help. Also, if there is an impending disaster, the app can alert the users beforehand and suggest relevant actions that are needed to be taken. The app can be personalized, which means each user has its own version of the app which will cater to the information and actions based on its location.
Other app features include, but are not limited to, access to weather forecast, report disaster, receive disaster alerts, access to events information, access to disaster supply store and suppliers contact details.
This app is a part of the Udhyami Utthan, a joint initiative of Thulo.Com and EMERGE
