Projects

AERU - Airborne Emergency Response Unit

The aim of the AERU project, which is being carried out in cooperation with the Humanitarian Pilots Initiative (HPI), is to create a platform-independent reserve parachute system for air dropping 80 to 120 kilograms of aid in order to guarantee inexpensive humanitarian aid in regions that are difficult to access.

Crisis Response Makerspace

Based on FabLabs , Cadus wants to develop new solutions for application scenarios with a research and innovation network to universities, colleges and the maker scene . The development should be kept in the public domain in order to make it accessible to other non-governmental organizations .

Mobile Hospital

The Mobile Hospital is a project for a mobile hospital in the north of Iraq and Syria. It consists of two trucks and several treatment and operation tents that can be set up and dismantled quickly. The mobility of the hospital is crucial as health centers in the region are often attacked. The Mobile Hospital has ten treatment places and an operating table and is operated by 10 helpers, including three doctors.

Together with professorships at the Beuth University of Technology and the Berlin University of Technology and Economics , a crisis-prone monitoring system for mobile hospitals was designed ( remo²hbo ), which is being developed via a mailing list and GitHub in an open development process. Among the associated vehicles is a device vehicle from the technical relief organization that has been reactivated by donations .

SAR Mediterranean

In 2015 the organization raised money for a boat to support sea ​​rescue off Lesvos . In 2016, together with the organization LifeBoat , they operated the rescue ship Minden off the Libyan coast.
