3. The core goal of our project is to provide communi es with a flexible pla orm that empowers them to
support each other in situa ons of environmental disasters. It allows to match offers and requests of aid in
an op mised way, restoring the normal course of life. By providing such pla orm, we will contribute to the
crea on of a robust sense of belonging to the community, as well as a stronger sense of autonomy and
selfempowerment. Both are key features, in a crowded world, where it is not always possible to rely on help
from the system. With a small tool, we contribute to mo va ng people to give their best and support each
other.
