Staying Reachable: Connectivity for Displaced Families

One remote satellite internet kit costs CAD $700. Verified local updates, coordinated response and a field-tested connectivity pathway for displaced families in Mérida and La Guaira.

When disruption hits, verified information is the first thing communities lose. This pathway links teams in Mérida and La Guaira so residents receive trusted local updates.

Coordinators use AlerteUnité to share conditions, coordinate deliveries and document what worked — building the evidence base for the next deployment.

The film above carries voices from "El Campito" refugee camp: residents displaced from their homes describe what it means to lose shelter, belongings and the ability to reach the people who can help — and why staying connected and coordinated matters while they rebuild.

Connectivity is the thread that holds this pathway together. A single remote satellite internet kit costs CAD $700 — the concrete, countable difference between one displaced family staying reachable and verifiable, or being cut off entirely. Each kit funds the local updates, coordination and evidence-gathering that this opportunity is built on.

Partnership focus: Community connectivity, verified conditions, and coordination during disruption.
