Impact & Legacy

What began as a volunteer project during my International Baccalaureate program has grown into critical infrastructure serving the local community in Santiago de Compostela.

The platform continues to be actively maintained and used daily by Protección Civil volunteers, proving that student-led initiatives can create lasting, meaningful impact when built with the right approach and dedication.

This project demonstrated how technology can modernize essential public services, making operations more efficient while maintaining the human-centered approach that defines civil defense work.
