Refugee Phrasebook was an international collaboration, during the height of the refugee crisis. The phrasebook was a collection essential phrases in several languages, combined with important information for refugees. The design philosophy behind it was that it should be as cheap as possible to produce and easy to replicate. For the Dutch edition we collaborated with students and teachers from Willem de Kooning Academy, Piet Zwart Institute and other volunteers led by André Castro.
I was part of DTP and distribution, importing the translations and making it as easy to read use as much space as possible without everything becoming a mess. For the distribution we all came together to fold and staple the phrasebooks. For more information about the Refugee Phrasebook please look up the official website.
