MOVE Tech Talk – Apr 2025 – IEEE MOVE India Program

IEEE MOVE Global is an emergency response program dedicated to assisting natural disaster relief efforts with short-term communication and power solutions. The program provides essential services such as internet access, mobile phone charging, and lighting to help people stay connected during disasters. When not deployed for emergency relief, IEEE MOVE Global engages in community outreach and STEM education.
The IEEE MOVE India program, initiated by the IEEE India Council Region 10 in collaboration with state disaster agencies and NGOs, focuses on disaster response efforts in India. This talk will highlight MOVE India's activities, including disaster awareness and STEM workshops conducted across the country. These workshops emphasize disaster preparedness, climate change, and sustainability, aiming to educate and empower students to create a safer, more resilient future. The session will also showcase the launch of STEM kits designed to educate students about climate change and sustainability.
Additionally, the talk will provide a preview of the MOVE India Truck, set to launch in 2025. This mobile vehicle, equipped with communication and power equipment, will play a key role in supporting disaster relief operations in India.
