Ericsson Response is a volunteer initiative that deploys employees and telecom equipment to support the UN and other humanitarian organizations in times of disaster.
Ericsson Response was founded in April 2000 at the request of company employees who wanted to use their experience and skills in disaster relief situations on a voluntary basis. Since then hundreds of Ericsson employees from all over the world have volunteered, been trained and deployed in various disaster relief operations.
