MOVE Community Outreach, an IEEE-USA Initiative, is an emergency relief program committed to assisting victims of natural disasters with short-term communications, computer, and power solutions. When not deployed for natural disasters, MOVE volunteers conduct community outreach and facilitate learning opportunities for students and the general public in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM).

MOVE USA SEP 2026 Tech Talk - AI in Amateur Radio Disaster Responses

This talk looks at AI in amateur radio not as a hobbyist curiosity, but through the lens of MOVE's own recent deployments. Starting with Hurricane Helene's response in Asheville, NC, we'll walk through concrete “what if AI had been in the loop?” scenarios; from pre-positioning trucks using signal-outage data, to cutting through RF noise with deep-learning tools, to triaging urgent welfare-check traffic.

Date: 22 Sep 2026
Time: 08:00 PM AST to 09:45 PM AST

Past News: Wow, Sections Congress, you outdid yourself! We're back from Glasgow feeling more energized than ever by your passion and dedication to tech that serves a bigger purpose.
Our booth felt electric, thanks to all of you. People kept saying they'd just pop in for a minute, but we found ourselves having so many meaningful conversations about our programs, answering funding questions, talking about a SIGHT Group back home, or a project idea they'd been sitting on for months.
We also got to mark ten years of IEEE MOVE Global 🎉, and the volunteers who've shown up for more than 40 disaster responses to make that record possible.

Workshop Spotlight: The Next Era of Disaster Response 🚐
takes the stage at the IEEE World Forum on Public Safety Technology (WF-PST) 2026 on September 21!

This session opens with a keynote from Mary Ellen Randall, the visionary behind MOVE, on mobilizing engineers for disaster relief, followed by talks on MOVE's global expansion and MOVE-USA's community deployments across the country. The program wraps with an inside look at the MOVE-3 response vehicle, a guided walkthrough of its satellite, networking, and power systems, and live truck tours.

Whether you're an engineer, volunteer, or public safety stakeholder interested in humanitarian technology, this is a firsthand look at how IEEE mobilizes disaster relief in the field.

From disaster zones to local classrooms, technology has the power to transform lives. 💡⚡

Mark Torres, Engagement and Public Visibility Chair, has seen firsthand how IEEE MOVE serves a dual mission: delivering immediate relief when crisis strikes and inspiring the next generation of problem solvers. Whether restoring vital power after a storm or sparking curiosity in a classroom, MOVE brings engineering solutions directly to the people who need them most.

Mark highlights what makes MOVE’s dual mission so unique:
🚨 Rapid Disaster Response: Rolling into disaster sites and restoring critical power to emergency equipment immediately
📚 Nationwide STEM Outreach: Reaching thousands of students annually across 21 U.S. states to showcase the real-world impact of technology
🌍 The Next Era: Expanding MOVE’s fleet and global presence to bring relief and STEM education to even more communities worldwide

Sections Congress, this is what impact looks like.

Ten years ago, IEEE MOVE Global started with a single truck and an idea: get communications and power to people in the middle of a disaster, fast.

A decade later, MOVE has assisted more than 1,000,000 survivors and first responders, run 43 deployments across three global command centers, and trained over 1,000 volunteers along the way.

We're celebrating that milestone at Sections Congress, and you're invited.

Catch two sessions dedicated to MOVE on Saturday, Aug 22 at 2:30 PM on the Ignite Stage:

🎉MOVE into STEM — Melody Richardson on how disaster response volunteers become STEM educators
🎉Celebrating 10 Years of IEEE MOVE — Francisco Carrero on how one truck became a global program

Or see the scale of it yourself at #28, as a dedicated wall walks you through a decade of MOVE.

Here's to the next 1️⃣0️⃣!

Go find us on the schedule, and:
👉 Leave a comment if we'll see you at SC2026
👉 Add our sessions to your itinerary
👉 Plan to swing by #28 🧭

“IEEE has never done something like this before, why start now?”

That was one of the biggest questions facing the team when IEEE MOVE was first conceptualized. Building a specialized emergency relief vehicle from scratch was uncharted territory for IEEE.

Hear from MOVE USA leadership team member Dave Green on how the team overcame initial challenges in the early days—recounting the hurdles, building the first truck, and figuring out how MOVE would fit into the broader emergency management system.

A special tribute to our donors: none of this would exist without our initial donors and sponsors. Their support and generosity allowed us to transform an idea into reality, laying the groundwork for 10 years of disaster response and STEM outreach.
💡 10 Years of Growth at a Glance:
🚚 From 1 truck to an expanding fleet of vehicles and kits
🌍 From a pilot in the USA to a growing global program
👥 From a small crew to hundreds of MOVE volunteers
