HelpBot

Inspiration

What it does

Allows refugees to reach out to organizations like Medair for assistance. Organizations can view the requests from the refugees and respond to them in real time.

How we built it

For a start, we allow the refugee to request for assistance via Facebook messenger app (https://developers.facebook.com/products/messenger/) - one of the most commonly used messaging apps.

Challenges we ran into

Real time communication between different platforms was the biggest challenge we ran into.
