Miles for Refugees is a virtual fundraising event which runs in September. When people register they have the choice of six distances, each related to a journey a refugee may have to take to reach safety. Participants can collect their miles by running, swimming, cycling or walking and have a fundraising target of £150.
The Orientatech project developed by the Social Technologies Foundation (TECSOS) in collaboration with Spanish Red Cross and Vodafone Foundation, aims to encourage participation and provide access to verified information related to the purchase, acquisition and use of technological products that support vulnerable collectives, such as older people or people with disabilities.
The Spanish Red Cross pioneered an Open Data strategy during the pandemic by publishing live data on its activity in a totally transparent way. Thanks to Microsoft technology, the platform has been able to provide daily updated data from records ranging from local to state level.
