Threading in Crisis (Brake The Curve)
Threading in Crisis is an initiative from the civil society that consists of a digital monitoring and connecting tool that allows users to visualize other projects and initiatives coming from citizens, the private sector, and civil society that serve to fight the various effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. On the platform, citizens of Colombia can register and report on their needs and their capacities to help, and scroll through already posted ads in order to match with a counterpart. Threading in Crisis uses data from the transnational initiative Stop the Curve.
