The IRC Launches Crowd-Sourced Reviews and Ratings Site For Syrian Refugees in Lebanon
Site Designed to Help Refugees Locate and Rate Basic and Commercial Service Providers
27 Apr 2015 – NEW YORK and BEIRUT, April 28, 2015 — The International Rescue Committee (IRC)… announced the launch of IRC Service Info, an online platform that will enable the more than 1 million Syrian refugees in Lebanon to search and rate aid and commercial services – ranging from healthcare to financial services and retail – online or over the phone.

Developed by the IRC and funded by a grant from the U.S. Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, the IRC’s Service Info project aims to provide a solution to an information gap for transient refugees looking for local services. The site URL is https://serviceinfo.rescue.org/app/.
