Who we are<br />

The first<br />

emergency<br />

Technology<br />

NGO<br />

Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF) was founded 20 years ago as the world’s first NGO focusing on emergency-response<br />

technologies.<br />

We empower populations and responders in humanitarian crises by delivering reliable connectivity when and where it is<br />

needed most. We give affected people the possibility to contact their loved ones and begin to regain control of their lives,<br />

and we build rapid-response communications centres for local and international responders.<br />

Thanks to 20 years of experience in the field, complemented by field teams with high-level technical skills, TSF can<br />

rapidly adapt its response to different crises and beneficiaries’ needs. In its early days, TSF focused on the first stage of an<br />

emergency. This culture of emergency response missions is core to TSF’s identity, but we have grown and changed as the<br />

role of technologies in emergencies have expanded.<br />
