For the first time in the history of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, RMS enables National Societies to view and analyze hazards and vulnerabilities together with their material and human resources like volunteers, staff, offices and warehouses on a digital up to date map to examine how well its people and resources are positioned.”
- John Gwynn, Head of Organisational Development IFRC Asia Pacific zone
