During the course of our research, we found that there was limited availability of suitable stock images and vectors representing the collective. Thus, we commissioned Selvam to create culturally sensitive illustrations and vectors that authentically represent the experiences and narratives of the research collective.
Some of these vectors are available for download here. Please feel free to use them in your work. All we ask is that you credit Selvam and the EXCAPE URMI project in your usage. Do tag us on social media @excapeurmi as well!”
