Translation
Project details
What we need
- Specific copy from one document (up to 1000 words) translated from one language to one other of the Organization's choice
- Note: If you need more than 1000 words translated or copy translated into more than one language, please post additional versions of this project
Additional details
As part of our work helping communities engage in decision-making, we create educational flyers. A few years ago, we had a set of flyers made about water infrastructure in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. The English flyer was updated recently. We need a translator to update the Spanish and/or Portuguese versions to match the new English one.
What we have in place
- We currently have the flyers (old and new), which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a description of our audience, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,098 , allowing us to progress more quickly and more successfully with various community engagement projects.
We're working to increase public engagement with decision-making processes that affect neighborhoods. In some communities we hope to engage, the primary language is not English. This translation project will help us engage those communities and improve outcomes for their neighborhoods.
