DHL Resilience360 will also integrate satellite images, in partnership with the German Aerospace Center (DLR), into its platform to help SOS Children’s Villages assess emergency response options in areas where disasters such as flooding or earthquakes have taken place. The platform will function as an early warning system which enables prompt reaction to incidents and an appropriate response such as evacuation of children and staff.“SOS Children’s Villages beneficiaries tend to be some of the most vulnerable children in the world, and it is a privilege to be aiding in the dissemination and coordination of timely intelligence to ensure they stay safe,” says Shehrina Kamal, Senior Manager, Product Management & Business Development, DHL Resilience360.The team will also use DHL Resilience360 to improve coordination by being able to share its own information of events happening on the ground. Together with local staff, members of the Emergency Coordination Response Team will be able to feed information into the platform, which will increase the efficiency of network intelligence and enable a prompt alert of staff around the globe in case of a disaster.Deutsche Post DHL Group and the NGO have been working together since 2011, aiming to improve education and employability of young people and help them understand the job market. Within the Group’s GoTeach program, employees are volunteering to mentor the youth in their transition to the working world. The program started in four countries in 2011 and expanded rapidly to 26 countries worldwide by 2015.“We are thrilled that our DHL Resilience360 product will come into use for meeting the objectives of an organization like SOS Children’s Villages with such a great cause”, Tobias Larsson, Head of Resilience360, DHL Customer Solutions & Innovation.Acknowledging the partnership of the two organizations, Andreas Papp will also be a keynote speaker at DHL Resilience360’s Risk & Resilience Conference on September 22 at the DHL Innovation Center in Germany.
