The GSMA will launch its Disaster Response Programme with an inaugural working group at Mobile World Congress. The Disaster Response programme seeks to understand how mobile operators can most effectively support each other and improve resilience among networks in disaster scenarios, and identify how the mobile industry can best help citizens and humanitarian organisations on the ground following a crisis. Programme activities will be announced and leaders from the mobile industry and humanitarian community will have an opportunity to share experiences, challenges and areas for improved coordination and collaboration.
