Floods: support at scale
Since April 2024, heavy rainfall and flooding in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul became the state’s worst weather-related emergency, with +2 million people affected.
The ERT supported several NGOs and initiatives responding to the emergency, with emergency response tools, free monday.com licenses and pro bono implementation.
In 4 weeks we were able to support 8 organizations and create an array of digital tools that enable them to respond dynamically to the changing realities.
Wild fires
Following extreme wildfires, the ERT deployed to support local NGO UniãoBR with their disaster relief efforts.
The ERT digitized our partner's core operations in coordination efforts of over 300 partners and distribution programs for over 100k beneficiaries.
Due to efficient coordination and distribution efforts, our partner was able to reach more vulnerable and affected communities with the same financial and manpower resources.
