Working away as field crew on projects, we all know how difficult
keeping in contact and communicating with colleagues, industry friends
and family can be.
Working in the field, we can work together for months, change bases
or finish our contract, and then possibly not see each other again
for months or even years, and still remain in the same organization.
Should one of us change agencies or leave the industry altogether,
it is far too easy to lose contact completely.
Our extraordinary nomadic life has inherent communication problems
at professional, social and personal levels. Crew2Crew has designed
and built a number of communications solutions specifically for agency
field crew and those that have left the industry.
A Live Aid and Relief Agency Search Database with data supplied
and regularly updated by leading industry data providers. This
will help you find yourself within the industry and then find your
colleagues and friends.
A Secure Communications System that provides crew and companies
with secure e-mail, IM Instant Messaging, private company chat
rooms, private notice boards, SMS text messaging and WAP communication
services.
Secure Networking through Crew2Crew filtered links for e-mail,
chat and messaging communication, where your private e-mail address
and contact details are kept private.
Social Networking allowing field crew active and retired, to
find and keep in contact with colleagues past and present. An online
community of aid & relief agency, humanitarian support and
medical crew, where you will always find someone you have something
in common with.
Agency Chat Room Community Crew2Crew have created an Agency Chat Room Community
for field crew from around the world to come and relax and socialize.
Rooms to be informed and keep up to date with changes in the industry
and private chat rooms for one to one conversation or a group of
your invited friends. Rooms to chat in your own language or create
your own temporary Chat room to discuss a specific topic.
General Notice & Message boards Their function is to act as a static communications point
where different types of information can be posted, viewed and
answered.
Crew 2 Crew is the Communications
Forum to your industry.
