Day 1
I pack my ICT-bag for Gaza and I take with me…
In this session, we will talk about the challenges of preparing a humanitarian response to a conflict zone, as well as give an overview and update on the situation of communication networks in Gaza.
Host: Corinna
CADUS is preparing to deploy a team for medical evacuations (MEDEVAC) in the context of the Gaza humanitarian crisis. For emergency response teams it is crucial to be able to receive constant up-to-date-information and be in touch with their base or headquarters, as well as communicate with each other on the ground. But in an active war zone like Gaza, the options to bring and use devices of information and communication technologies (ICT) are highly restricted.
