Digital Materials or Audiovisual Resources Manual 'How to stay home?' The Manual ‘How to stay home?’ aimed the graphic/visual translation of the measures to adopt in pandemic times, expanding some scenarios that have not been contemplated in institutional campaigns, such as situations of precarious housing where isolation is difficult or even impossible. Following a positive dynamic, the manual also stresses the importance of equal distribution of measures, fostering co-responsibility among all the people with whom one lives. In addition to the importance given to the spatial graphic translation of DGS information, the materials are available in several languages (Portuguese, Arabic, Cape Verdean Creole, English, Nepalese, Urdu), allowing migrant communities access to accessible information in the fight against spread of COVID-19. 2020
