Summary

Atma Connect uses text-based disaster warnings, specifically SMS, to quickly reach people in Indonesia's flood-prone areas, where traditional government early warning systems often fail. The organization's flagship tool, AtmaGo, is a social networking app that enables neighbor-to-neighbor communication and provides users with real-time information about floods, jobs, food prices, and local politics. By leveraging Twilio Programmable SMS, Atma Connect can send critical warnings and news to users quickly and reliably, reaching even the poorest and most vulnerable communities. The app has gained widespread acclaim and is estimated to reduce flood damage by $28 to $85 million per incidence in the Jakarta region alone.
