International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies Team Up With Microsoft to Improve Technology Infrastructure | |
|
||
| Time: 21:22 EST/02:22 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||
|
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and Microsoft Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) today signed an agreement to enhance the organisation’s technology infrastructure. Under the agreement, Microsoft, through the International Federation, will provide national Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, particularly those in under-funded regions, with technological tools to help them improve their ability to serve affected populations more effectively. Microsoft will donate software licences to the national societies in the least-developed countries in Africa and the Middle East, provide technology training to Red Cross and Red Crescent volunteers and local communities, and offer consulting by Microsoft employee volunteers. The agreement was signed by Markku Niskala, secretary-general of the International Federation, and Jean-Philippe Courtois, CEO of Microsoft EMEA, at a ceremony today at the International Federation’s headquarters in Geneva. | ||
