When your world is turned upside down
Communication is as crucial as Food, Water, Shelter and Medicine.
First Response Radio (FRR) delivers critical information, via radio, to affected communities in the immediate aftermath of disasters.
Countries
First Response Radio has been working in many Asian countries over the past six years, training teams to respond to disasters by setting up radio stations using the unique 'radio-in-a-suitcase' equipment,and broadcast essential information to the affected communities very quickly. It is anticipated that teams will soon be trained in other, disaster prone areas of the world.
