Context
The Tech Volunteers for Resilience (Tech4R) programme, co-led by UNDP ICPSD and UNV, mobilizes skilled digital volunteers to develop open-source tools supporting disaster resilience, recovery, and sustainable development. In collaboration with UN-Habitat Ukraine, Tech4R is implementing a GIS-Based Recovery Dashboard for Borodianka hromada (Kyiv Oblast). The tool visualizes reconstruction efforts and environmental risks to strengthen data-driven recovery planning. The Localization & Documentation Volunteers will support the translation, bilingual adaptation, and documentation of the dashboard to ensure accessibility for both Ukrainian and English-speaking users, as well as for future replication in other municipalities.
