Digital innovation in the name of solidarity: technology crosses borders and builds bridges between communities

Families, adults, children and entire populations on the move to reach places far-removed from warfare and suffering: these are the protagonists of now regular photograms in magazines and newspapers, the media, and global social networks. A growing issue of concern for the digital world as well, to the point that Internet access has been defined as the “facilitator of human rights” by Mark Zuckerberg. Above and beyond the financial focus of the expansion of the connected world, the Web makes available services and apps dedicated to the issue to individuate and produce effective solutions to some of the most urgent problems: locating accommodation, rediscovering family and friends who are also escaping their countries, managing reception, following and offering courses and education. Digital connections are also fundamental in communicating positive or emblematic stories, offering political perspectives, delineating a strong and solid territorial network that attenuates the social impact of migration and offers support to those fleeing from barbarism. Accurate and precise storytelling that encompasses music, the conveyor of stories that go beyond every boundary and barrier.
