The EmerCALD (Emergency Communications for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities) team based at the SMART Infrastructure Facility, has been awarded the Community Innovation Award as part of the Illawarra Multicultural Awards announced last week.

EmerCALD, one of last year’s UOW Community Engagement Grant Scheme projects, has set a precedent for a cost-effective and sustainable approach to delivering emergency messages in multiple languages across Australia and beyond.
