Mokin, intelligent translation tool for asylum seekers

Mokin

Instant translator that facilitates communication between asylum seekers and the professionals who assist them

mokin min

Mokin is a live intelligent translation tool that breaks down language barriers between asylum seekers and the professionals who support them. Through instant translation, Mokin immediately translates voices into the language spoken by the respective recipients, allowing both parties to communicate effectively.

Its main function is to help create participation and integration plans through voice-to-voice translation. Its operation is very simple: users speak in their language, and Mokin instantly translates what is said into the language of the interlocutor, without the need for an interpreter.

Mokin uses artificial intelligence models that provide more accurate translations than generic translators. Additionally, it is specialized in terminology related to the social and legal context of migrants, which facilitates their integration. It also takes into account the cultural nuances of users and adapts to the particularities of their native language. The tool is specialized in the languages most spoken by asylum seekers in the Netherlands, such as Persian, Tigrinya, and Arabic, with plans to incorporate additional languages. In this way, it ensures fluid, precise, and understandable communication between asylum seekers and those accompanying them.

Furthermore, it allows users to listen to previous translations, translate texts, download complete transcriptions, and provides explanations and clarifications for translations that may not be clear. In the future, developers plan to include a feature that will generate reports based on the conversations held, as well as offer an incognito mode to ensure a higher level of security, although it should be noted that it currently already complies with the privacy standards of the Dutch government regarding the maintenance of anonymity and the confidentiality of user data.

Currently, they offer a private beta version aimed at public employees and asylum seekers who request support through the form available on their website.

BCI

Technological innovation that restores communication in patients with neurodegenerative diseases

The brain-computer device, known as BCI (Brain-Computer Interface), is a technological innovation designed to restore communication in patients with neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

This system translates brain signals into audible words, providing a solution for those who have lost the ability to speak due to muscle paralysis. Through sensors implanted in the brain, the device can decode the patient’s speech intentions and convert them into artificial voice.

BCI technology allows patients to regain their ability to communicate with family and friends, even in spontaneous conversation settings, by detecting and interpreting brain signals. The use of neural networks and advanced algorithms enables the device to offer high accuracy in word translation, surpassing other voice recognition technologies.

This advancement represents hope not only for ALS patients but also for people with other communication-impairing conditions, such as strokes or spinal cord injuries.

Projecte IWI

A program that provides support to families with minors in their care who detect difficulties within their own homes and wish to address them in a community-based manner

The IWI Project (community in Maori) is a pioneering service in Catalonia that offers support to families with underage children to improve their well-being, using the Family Group Conference restorative justice methodology, originally from New Zealand. This methodology is based on dialogue and trust in the abilities of families to find solutions to their problems through the active involvement of their community and support network.

The project is aimed at families who detect difficulties in their family dynamics and wish to address them. IWI offers a safe space where family members can express their needs and, together with the reference people they select, find community solutions to their problems. This process includes individual meetings with family members, the creation of a support community, and a final meeting where actions to be taken are discussed and agreed upon.

After the family meeting, IWI conducts follow-ups to assess progress and strengthen community ties. This follow-up is an opportunity to acknowledge the community’s effort and recognize the positive changes that have taken place. Thus, IWI not only works to resolve immediate issues but also seeks to strengthen family and community relationships in the long term. Additionally, there are plans to establish physical offices in all four provinces to provide a point of reference for families.

Metavers Plena Inclusión Aragón

Avatar that enables learning daily skills to enhance the autonomy of people with intellectual disabilities

Plena Inclusión Aragón and Cooperativa Kairós have developed a “metaverse” that allows practicing and learning daily skills through an avatar, aiming for people with intellectual disabilities to improve their autonomy and social participation.

The metaverse includes eight dimensions, in the form of virtual doors, symbolizing the central areas of a quality life: emotional well-being, interpersonal relationships, material well-being, personal development, physical well-being, self-determination, social inclusion, and rights. Some of the virtual activities that can be performed through the avatar include exercising, meeting friends, or participating in community activities. The application presents challenges in different areas and offers virtual rewards, such as avatar customization, thereby using gamification to encourage a healthy and fulfilling life.

The tool not only benefits people with disabilities in making decisions, but also allows professionals working with them to better understand their feelings and personal needs, expressed through the avatars. The creation of the metaverse is part of the project “Mi Casa: una vida en comunidad”, a model of deinstitutionalized long-term care for people with intellectual disabilities.
