The Colombian Civil Defense is a relief organization that prepares and executes responses to emergencies and natural or man-made disasters. It participates in social and environmental rehabilitation throughout the national territory to contribute to peace, human rights, and multilateral commitments in the event of an international request.
With the aim of strengthening its core processes, the organization created a virtual radio station, a communication tool to complement its response capacity for Disaster Risk Management, Social Action, and Environmental Management. This is made possible by the effectiveness and great advantages offered by the internet, placing the organization at the forefront of using this technology for disaster response and prevention compared to other relief organizations worldwide.
Through the use of cutting-edge technology with a high-quality streaming platform, the Colombian Civil Defense aims to disseminate its plans, projects, and campaigns to communities at the national, regional, and local levels, and to be an effective source of information for emergency and disaster management.
The Colombian Civil Defense's virtual radio station has an application for smartphones, tablets, and computers, which will allow its followers to listen to and participate in the programming from anywhere, in addition to a remote system for real-time transmission from the site where any emergency occurs.
