The ECB training was an eye opener, especially in areas of weaknesses such as provision of feedback to the beneficiaries, which for most organizations is often an oversight. Most times organizations concentrate exclusively on achievement of the objectives of the programme being implemented."

ICT4emergencies

This project, led originally by CRS but transitioned to Nethope in 2007, set out to address two perceived needs of ICT professionals working in emergency response:

• A “knowledge base” or central repository for the sharing of technical information about various types of emergency-appropriate hardware, software and telecommunications solutions.
• An “emergency response center” or space dedicated to specific emergencies as they arise, where ICT professionals that are responding can share technical information about ICT activities and availability in the affected area.
