Venezuela Launches Biometric Platform to Reunite Earthquake-Separated Children

Vente Venezuela launched a digital platform in Venezuela that uses biometric matching to identify children separated from their families following the recent earthquakes. The organization developed the platform to address the vulnerability of minors impacted by the strong earthquakes on August 24.

The platform aims to help reunite children and adolescents with their families. Details about the platform’s functionality or the number of children still separated remain unclear.

Vente Venezuela is a political organization focusing on human rights. They hope this tool will provide a crucial service in the aftermath of the natural disaster and help restore family connections.
