For the past five years, Airbnb has stepped in during emergencies— the earthquake in Japan, or wildfires in Canada — to pair volunteer hosts with people in need. Now, the company has launched a new platform to formalize and grow its efforts. Dubbed the “open homes platform,” it’s a homesharing site for hosts motivated by goodwill instead of profits — and for guests motivated by need rather than wanderlust.
过去五年,爱彼迎在危机中屡屡出手,不管是日本的地震还是加利福尼亚的磷火,爱彼迎都为灾难中的人们提供了相应的志愿者住户。当下,爱彼迎发起了新的平台,来规模化并壮大面临灾难所能提供的援助。这个平台叫做“开放式家庭”,是由有善心而不看重利益的住户提供的房屋共享平台,平台的使用者仅限于受难群体而非游客。
To start, the platform will connect refugees with volunteer hosts in Canada, France, Greece, and the United States. People can register on the site — even if they aren’t already hosts on Airbnb — and list their homes. Social service agency partners will vet them, and then place families for stays from a few days to a few weeks.
首先,“开放式家庭”将在加拿大、法国、希腊、美国分别联系难民和志愿者住户。即使是非爱彼迎的房屋提供者也可以在爱彼迎网站上注册房屋信息。社会服务机构会对注册房屋进行审查,然后将住户开放时间定为几天或几星期。
