“Haiti showed everyone that it is going to be crucial to adopt and use these
technologies to make humanitarian work better, faster and more efficient.”

Exercise
The purpose of the session is to build a common language. Our goal is to have geeks, humanitarians, researchers and residents learn some of the basic words for emergencies. This type of tasks is one of the first things that digital humanitarians do when there is an activation. We will use these keywords for future events. (We’ll share the notes on the #digihumsQA mailing list.)
1. Scenario 1: There is a large explosion in Doha. What types of keywords and social media tools/accounts will you use to track this? How can we organize to support the local responders and affected communities?
2. Scenario 2: There is an earthquake/tsunami in Indonesia. It is high on the Richter scale . What are the keywords and social media tools/accounts that you would use to track this?
