“You can power people with visible & invisible disabilities to solve their challenges - Response to the crisis in Ukraine”
Dear volunteers,
Thank you for your interest in supporting EnableMe to bring an online solution with information, advice, referral and links to services for people with disabilities in the current situation of crisis in Ukraine.
In crisis situations, people with disabilities and chronic diseases receive limited information, legal assistance, medical assistance, food, cash, and psychosocial support.
The overall objective of the EnableMe online platform is to collaborate with local partners, protect and provide support to carers, the elderly and people with visible and invisible disabilities in Ukraine, by:
1. Giving access to information which will help them manage their health, psychosocial and wellbeing straight from their smartphones and computers. (Content)
2. Enabling users to find the appropriate (online and offline) support they need. (Directory)
3. Building a supportive community and peer-support network who will give moral and psychosocial support to the users at no charge and anonymously. (Community)
4. Providing users with online first aid access to expert advisors on a variety of health, psychosocial and disability-related issues so that they can manage their situation. (Directory & Community)
To be able to act at speed, our Swiss-based non-profit organization is seeking Ukrainian and Russian-speaking volunteers who can support us in various roles:
1. Translation of website
2. Content: Translation of content articles on different disability types (improvement of automated Google / Deepl translation) and contextualization of the information
3. Needs analysis: Support in the outreach to local disability organizations and relief agencies and analysis of the most dire needs
4. Community: Gather most relevant questions via telegram chats and on-the-ground links with organizations.
5. Community: Kick-starting the community by posting the identified relevant questions with answers
6. Experts: Build up the trade expert pool of volunteers who speak Ukrainian or Russian (e.g. with medical background) in Western Europe to answer challenging questions on the community
7. Partners: Help develop a list of organizations and service providers on the ground
