Responding

When an event takes place, it is to be evaluated based on two criteria:

Severity the overall impact the event has had on the population and how many have been affected. Relevancy Microsofts ability to positively impact the response and its overall relationship to the event

This evaluation takes place by the Humanitarian V-team and determines the scope of activities which will be supported.

Rapidly and effectively deploy Microsoft resources at points of disaster to aid communities and responders.
