Governments

Governments around the world assist the ETC to provide timely, predictable, and effective communications services to all those responding to humanitarian emergencies.

The ETC works with governments as donors which support ongoing humanitarian emergencies as well as preparedness efforts. As part of its ETC2020 strategy, the ETC works with governments affected by disaster to increased communications resilience, helping them safeguard systems and prepare for responses when disasters strike. The ETC is currently working on government resilience projects in the Philippines
