REACH is a service that assists in the resettlement journey of climate refugees through mobile shelters. Once the location of climate refugees is identified, amphibious mobility vehicles are dispatched to aid in their evacuation. During transit, refugees can signal SOS for urgent rescue. Refugees receive education about the camp and resettlement areas while en route to temporary shelters. Tablets attached to seats provide medical reports, aiding in health management and supporting resettlement procedures, facilitating refugees' adaptation and resettlement process post-rescue. Upon arrival at temporary shelters, REACH supports refugees in forming markets and building communities within the camp. This initiative enables refugees to buy and sell various items, fostering a sense of community and creating a foundation for self-sufficiency after resettlement.
