In your own words: what kind of safety information would have helped your family most during a recent climate event (flood, haze, heat, disease outbreak, emergency)?

💬 Don't have time to type? Tap the microphone icon on your phone keyboard and speak — even one sentence is enough. Any language welcome. Or upload a voice memo in the next question.

(Optional — but the most powerful part of this survey. We'll transcribe your words to support our UNICEF application, anonymised.)

Or — upload a 30-second voice memo instead (optional alternative to typing)

💬 Prefer to talk instead of type? Record a voice memo on your phone (any voice-recorder app) — even 30 seconds is enough — and upload it here.

We will use speech-to-text to transcribe your words (in any language) and your voice becomes evidence in our UNICEF Innovation Fund application — anonymised, only your role and area, never your name.

Example of what helps us most:
"My family lives near a river in Selangor. When floods come at night, we have only minutes to evacuate. What would help most is a voice alert from a neighbour in our family WhatsApp group, before official rescue arrives."
