thewayout_eu

The application The Way Out is an android application that was initially developed for the ehackthecrisiscyprus event but was further enhanced for the #euvsvirus organized by the European Commission (https://euvsvirus.org/) in order to #hackthecrisis.

The Concept and impact to the crisis

The concept is to provide a mobile application that will provide useful information and assistance to citizens about COVID-19. Specifically:

citizens will be able to be informed about the exact locations where they can find help for issues regarding COVID-19 (like financial assistance, health assistance, etc.).
fight #disinformation and #fakenews: the application will provide official news for the evolution of COVID-19
Smart Assistant: provide advice to citizens
Volunteering: support groups of people who want to help fellow citizens in need.

Necessities in order to continue the project.

Further enhancement of the proposed chatbot introducing AI technologies in order to be able to respond in more questions that citizens may have.
Collaboration with city municipalities or ministries in order to update in real-time assistance points.
Back-end development in order to fully implement the idea of formulating communities/groups of people who want to volunteer in specific tasks.
Collaboration with existing volunteering groups.
