Message Library
Message Library acts as a reference for those wanting to disseminate critical information to affected populations in an emergency throughout Bangladesh. The Message Library has been developed in collaboration with Government of Bangladesh Officials (Department of Disaster Management, DDM), different UN clusters, International and National NGOS and other stakeholders working in humanitarian response. It can be used both as a disaster preparedness tool and following the outbreak of an emergency. Translators without Borders has contributed a wide selection of translations to the Message Library.
