Created in response to the devastating December 2004 tsunami that hit South Asia. 'The space can be used for discussing the role that information and communication technologies (ICTs) can play in averting natural disasters and assisting relief efforts. Participants may also use it to share resources on relief work during times of crisis, as well as ICTs and emergency preparedness.' (Copyright 2006 by Librarians' Internet Index)
