#OurCovidStory

Volunteers from all around the world, we want to hear from you!

What has been your experience of volunteering in COVID-19? Share your story with the network so we can learn from your experience and become better.

Access hundreds of stories of volunteers from all over the world classified by language, directly on this page, or by consulting our thematic map.

Volunteers and their stories during every emergency inspire us. Connecting a global RCRC volunteer and humanitarian network across the covid-19 response was a core goal of Solferino Academy. We are piloting a map to help you explore volunteer stories from the past months.

Go platform

IFRC GO is an online platform for emergency monitoring and response tracking. It combines real-time field information with secondary data and available response capacity information. The platform can be accessed by anyone on https://go.ifrc.org. For Red Cross and Red Crescent staff and volunteers, information restricted to the Movement can be accessed by creating a GO user account. For any questions, please contact [email protected].

Fednet

FedNet is the extranet of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (Federation), a platform where we can work, collaborate, communicate and inform about the activities of the Federation, its member National Societies and the Secretariat.

We encourage all staff and volunteers of the Red Cross and Red Crescent periodically visit FedNet.

The Sokoni Platform

This special “SOKONI” webspace will serve as the primary public website and marketplace where the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement can access and interact on all matters related to COVID-19. SOKONI is a Swahili word for ‘marketplace’. In most cultures, the marketplace is a space to connect, to share, to exert curiosity and look for novelty, to get to meet others, communicate, test ideas, and listen to the cacophony of sellers, buyers and passers-by. SOKONI is such place to share ideas, in order to improve our response to COVID-19.
