During the COVID-19 pandemic, I volunteered with Covid Sahayta, a social service initiative aimed at combating misinformation and spreading accurate information about COVID-19 in rural India. Recognizing the critical need for clear communication, I contributed by designing informative graphics in both English and Hindi, leveraging my language skills as a native of North India. These graphics were essential in educating rural communities about necessary precautions and safety measures. Through this initiative, we were able to bridge the information gap and empower communities with the knowledge needed to protect themselves during the pandemic.
