A Kerry project which aims to help communication with refugees and migrants who don't speak English has won a major award.
VOCAL IN NEED is led in Ireland by IT Tralee, in partnership with a consortium of Vocational Education and Training institutions from eight countries.
It designed online training and a smartphone app for both security and non-governmental organisation staff to be able to communicate with refugees.
