Refugee hackathon
Refugee aid can also be done digitally: This was shown by the Refugee Hackathon in Berlin at the end of October 2015, where programmers, designers and people with brilliant ideas spent a weekend developing useful IT applications to make it easier to accept and integrate refugees. For example this one.
Companies can offer vouchers for refugees on the platform. Whether it's membership in a sports club or a free language learning app - this is intended to make the start of a new life easier.
Interpreter
A platform that is intended to improve communication: interpreters for, for example, accompaniment to the doctor or to authorities can be arranged here just as easily as translators for official mail or tandems for mutual language learning.
Migration Guide
In order to make the route safer for refugees, the Android app currently in development would like to provide up-to-date information about escape routes. For example, about aid organizations on the route, fraudulent smugglers or the nearest WiFi hotspot.
Helper chain
The “intelligent” mailing list is intended to make it easier to coordinate helpers. If there is a specific need for help in a facility, Helper Chain informs registered members - depending on where they live and the help they have already provided.
