    abstract = "The DECA project consortium investigates epistemic capacities, defined as an individual{'}s access to reliable knowledge, their ability to participate in knowledge production, and society{'}s capacity to make informed, sustainable policy decisions. As a tool both for accessing information across language barriers and for producing multilingual information, machine translation also plays a potential role in supporting these epistemic capacities. In this paper, we present an overview of DECA{'}s research on two perspectives: 1) how migrants use machine translation to access information, and 2) how journalists use machine translation in their work."
