Find out how the new Auslan translations of RediPlan have been developed

Developed by Australian Red Cross Humanitech in partnership with Kara Tech and co-designed with members of the Brisbane Deaf and hard-hearing community, this project supports greater inclusion in emergency preparedness.

Learn how we created the first Auslan-signing digital Australian Red Cross volunteer avatar, built a motion-captured Auslan database, and translated the RediPlan into Auslan.

With thanks to Australian Red Cross Humanitech’s scaling partner, QBE Foundation, and founding partner, Telstra Foundation, who have supported this program to improve and increase accessibility to the Red Cross RediPlan for the Deaf and hard of hearing community.
