About

This wiki is a collection point for information about Recovery 2.0 - an opensource disaster recovery initiative. All hosting and labor is contributed.

Goals

Our goal is to be ready for the next disaster so people can better use the internet — via any device — to better:

1. share information,
2. report and act on calls for help,
3. coordinate relief,
4. connect the missing,
5. provide connections for such necessities as housing and jobs,
6. match charitable assets to needs,
7. get people connected to these projects - and the world - sooner.
