Description

Recent emergencies, such as the major hurricanes in the Caribbean and the unprecedented number of people being forcibly displaced around the world, highlight the increasingly important role mobile plays during times of crisis. As mobile communication becomes ever more critical to the success of disaster response efforts and humanitarian aid delivery, policymakers and regulators need to better understand how they can support these efforts through effective policies. This course looks at the role of policymakers and mobile operators in disaster response management and the effect they can have on the acceleration of aid delivery during and after a humanitarian crisis.
