Nidaa

"Just three days after the war started, Sudanese market intelligence firm DataQ launched a platform called Nidaa (meaning โ€œcall for helpโ€ in Arabic). It allows people in distress to post their requirements โ€” from money and groceries to medical services and a ride to safety โ€” so volunteers can reach out to them."
