RedSalvavidas - LifesaversNetwork
Mobile Innovation for social change.
"At this very moment, at some place around the world, a community is facing the devastating impact from a natural disaster…"
Every year, more than 200 million people turn out to be affected by the destructive forces from earthquakes, hurricanes, cyclones, floods, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, landslides and other threats from nature.
Although we can't deter the unstoppable force of nature, we can diminish the losses that these disasters cause in terms of human lives throughout the world.
Therefore we have created RedSalvavidas, a new media that saves lives from mobile phones, which mission is to develop a new concept on the prevention of disaster risks, a new platform for emergencies reaction and a new cooperation stage for crisis situations, starting from the possibilities that mobile technology, internet and the social networks offer.

How we save lives?
RedSalvavidas follows each person (but especially vulnerable communities) before, during and after emergency situations, establishing timely “vital connections” from your mobile phone.
Before disasters occur, RedSalvavidas develops a new concept in disaster risk prevention, where the mobile phone plays a central role.
• RedSalvavidas informs you:
- It puts in your hands, in your mobile, early alerts that allow you to timely react, before that a predictable disaster affects the area where you are located.
- It also keeps you informed about natural disasters that happen worldwide, making you even more aware of the risks that you are exposed at any moment and place, and about the importance to be prepared to face them.
• RedSalvavidas prepares you:
- It guides persons, families, companies and communities step by step, in the task of making an emergency plan, following from the mobile the preparation process. Also, it registers personalized and precise information of each plan, to remind every person how to act in panic moments.
During disasters, RedSalvavidas is a platform that triggers reaction processes!
By making a redundant use of all the possible communication channels that a mobile phone has, to have the maximum advantage of the telecommunications infrastructure (before it collapses and as son as it is restored).
• RedSalvavidas assists you and connects you:
- It connects you with reality (What is happening, how should you behave),
- It connects you with the people that you want to be safe (how and where are your friends and relatives),
- It connects you with the agents committed to emergency reaction (aid bodies, health system, security services, support institutions, governments, NGO’s)
- It connects you with the available resources (where can you receive medical attention, where can you find shelter according to your location).
After disasters, RedSalvavidas is a cooperation platform that matches needs with resources (Water, food, supplies, vital resources, medicines, etc) managing its obtaining as well as its placement.
At this stage RedSalvavidas constitutes itself as a means for communication between each affected person and the agents that intervene in the community fixing process, making its administration easier.
“In emergency situations, you will never be alone again, we will be in your hands (in your mobile) to connect you to life!”
