COVID-19 Resources in 30+ Languages to Help Support BAME Communities

0


The initiative began three months ago and provides information in over 30 languages to help increase accessibility. 

The COVID-19 Infographics Project was established by a team of around 20 volunteer doctors, students and translators.

The group aims to make information about COVID-19 more accessible to those from BAME communities through the use of easy-to-understand infographics in different languages.

BAME communities are being disproportionately affected by COVID-19 and The COVID-19 Infographics Project has been working alongside community organisations to prevent this.

They also aim to tackle misinformation and fake news by ensuring their work is well-researched and backed up by both medical and scientific facts.

The project are currently recruiting for several more volunteer roles.

Their work can be found here:
