MOVE is Going International
By Mike Wilson – Sr. Program Manager

What is new? IEEE is expanding its program to provide
disaster relief on an international basis. We are calling
this “MOVE International.”

Services will be provided by in-country IEEE volunteers
under a plan where each nations’ program is entirely
funded by donations collected within that country in
coordination with a well-respected deployment partner.
