When disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis and hurricanes strike, communications networks are often among the first pieces of critical infrastructure to overload or fail, leaving individuals disconnected from one another and from essential services and communications. The <strong>Off-the-Grid Internet Challenge<\/strong> seeks solutions that help individuals wirelessly access each other and information services like maps and messaging following a disaster.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Stage 2 submissions are 6\/22 and if our project is selected as a finalist, we will have the opportunity to present at the Mozilla headquarters in Mountain View, CA on 8\/14.
