Project Summary

Passerelle is a multilingual, AI-powered communication platform co-designed with NGOs to improve access to protection, health, and legal services for displaced people.

Refugees often face life-threatening barriers due to language exclusion, especially during first contact with authorities. Passerelle offers a hybrid model combining contextual AI translation with rapid escalation to trained interpreters for sensitive or high-risk content. The solution is being piloted in France and designed for scale across humanitarian contexts. Key partners include refugee-led organizations, legal aid clinics, and interpretation networks.

Our goal is to build inclusive digital infrastructure that protects fundamental rights, increases institutional trust, and ensures safe access to services—regardless of language.
