The CII Foundation engages Indian industry for supporting humanitarian response following natural disasters across the country. The interventions are carried out in partnership with all stakeholders and include immediate relief as well as long term rehabilitation measures for the affected communities .
CII Foundation has created this online platform to enable preparedness and bring about convergence of efforts of various stakeholders, in particular donor companies providing aid and support to relief operations, and suppliers of goods & services needed on the ground. The website facilitates inventory mapping by donors, and manages relief supplies & supplier database. The website will also showcase relief requirements of goods, equipment and services in case of a particular disaster, for quick and efficient response.
