What they say about Atma Connect

Testimonies from our clients and users

After the disaster, AtmaGo helped us with the recovery effort, so then we get back on our feet by helping each other. We had a campaign to clean up the neighborhood and plant trees together, and others provided seedlings to help with the re-plantation effort.

AtmaGo empowers people to help each other in the aftermath of a disaster. AtmaGo’s tag “Neighbors helping Neighbors” is very important. People’s social connectedness in the field becomes a force, to communicate to each other and to disaster response teams.

We organized an activity to plant Mangrove trees on AtmaGo. Mangroves help to provide protection from natural disasters in our area, such as storms, flooding, and reduce the momentum and impact of waves.

Community members in Puerto Rico are using AtmaGo to amplify their work to turn waste into an opportunity rather than a problem. Residents have come together to create an organization to collect recyclable materials, and also educate organizations and schools on how to manage their waste

AtmaGo serves as a digital democracy that gives opportunities for communities to communicate their aspirations -- accurately, trusted and transparently. It serves as an education tool on how to build communications amongst different parties for the development of a region.

I monitor citizens’ complaints via AtmaGo, like complaints of blocked drains at Jakarta Car Free Day. I then report this to the Governor of Jakarta. People complained about broken a sidewalk in Surabaya, so I called the Mayor of Surabaya. It helps me in doing my duty to address citizens' needs.

With this Anti-Misinformation training, I can now detect which images are hoaxes, and what information is opinion or fact.

Atma's citizen journalism training activity is quite important. As citizen journalism can play a role in providing disaster mitigation literacy and information. AtmaGo itself is important to connect citizen journalists throughout the archipelago, so that they exchange information and learn from each other.

Now with AtmaGo at my hand, it becomes much easier for me to share information related to the activities we have been working on, AtmaGo has also supported me on building cohesion among my local community.

I found employees for my small business by posting on AtmaGo. I tried FB, WA, and IG, but no one responded. Within a short time after posting on AtmaGo I found help.
