Vizocom’s Satellite Solution allows CARE to focus on their mission of implementing development and humanitarian aid projects to fight poverty in Chad
Humanitarian organizations throughout the world need to rely upon reliable internet services, and sustainability is at the core of internet services capable of fulfilling their needs. They need to have reliable and readily available means of communication in order to stay in contact with teams regardless of location, empowering the front line to help generate the right first response to tackle emergency crises.
Client
CARE is a global confederation of 14 member and 4 candidate/affiliate organizations working together to end poverty. In 2017, CARE worked in 93 countries around the world, implementing 950 poverty-fighting development and humanitarian aid projects. It reached more than 62 million people directly and 216 million people indirectly.
CARE began operations in Chad in 1975. Over the last 30 years, it continuously adjusted its programs in response to the political developments in Chad. CARE in Chad focuses on humanitarian assistance, water and sanitation, education, agriculture and natural resource management, gender-based violence assistance to Central African refugees, and urban programming.
The Challenge
CARE needed a reliable and stable internet connection in their office in Ndjamena to coordinate their operations in Africa. They needed scalable and reliable internet connectivity to ensure that their office and assets are connected 24 x 7 and relay mission-critical information from base to the field and vice versa.
