"Refugees United" website

A website created by a Danish NGO called Refugees United enables refugees to connect with relatives, friends and loved ones in their countries of origin or in other countries through the Internet.

It is a search engine designed to streamline and simplify the process of locating family members torn apart in their escape. Through the strength of the search engine, it is possible to seek via anything from country to county, last name to last known location, while the engine progressively and intelligently narrows the search, enabling virtually all with just a minimal knowledge of their origin to locate anyone matching their criteria: The power rests in the hands of the seekers and the sought. One can register without having to give all one’s personal details, a nickname is enough; allowing for anonymity.
