Hi, I suggested we could try to set a volunteer team that would monitor the crisis information channels. IMHO this would have two folds:
- monitor the crisis where there is a HOT Activation, in order to alleviate the burden of the main Activators, eg Pierre and Andrew for Ebola Crisis. There may be such an informal team or partnering with other Volunteering Technical Communities like VISOV or some more informal groups (like the one for the Sudan Floods), or not (case for the CAR Activation) - monitor the other crisis, especially the "forgotten ones" and raise the attention to the community. Sure there is a lot to do to the ones we activated but we may have contributors that prefer to contribute where the needs are high but the response low (it is actually my case). Regarding the channels, sure http://reliefweb.int/ is very useful but there are also other international broadcasting channels or regional and local ones. Simply exchanging about this would be beneficial for the whole response. Thoughts? Sincerely, Severin
