For a start, we could give a Google Translate option (tried in Tamil, worked pretty fine) to expand reach.

Later, we can work on formalising through more accurate crowdsourced translation.

What sort of data would we need to be translated? Actually worked on such a project via a medical association translating common medical phrases for Covid -19 into 12 different regional languages. We still have that team and can collaborate with them if possible.

Woah that seems like a great initiative. Lets see how to get that into this project.

I was thinking of basically a translation of all the content on the website. Objective is to increase reach. I am not well versed with crowdsourced translation platforms, maybe @technosap @PratikMandlecha can help. We can try using google translate and see how the results are till then.

A way to crowdsource translation. Its only free upto 1000 strings though.
