The Linguacuisine app was co-designed with a group of migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers from Action Foundation, Newcastle, UK and seeks to help them in two ways.
Firstly, immigrants to a country can cook the recipes to learn about the language, cuisine and culture of their host country and help their integration.
Secondly, immigrants can produce their own recipes in their own language using the recipe building software, so they are able to have a voice and so people in their host country are able to learn something about their life prior to arrival.
A number of recipes currently on the Linguacuisine app have been produced by migrants in the UK.
