About this organization
Mission
The mission of Translators Without Borders to provide people access to vital knowledge in their language by: Aiding in humanitarian crisis response through translation and interpretation Providing translation and simplification services that are culturally appropriate, accessible and open-source Building language translation capacity at the local level Raising awareness globally of language barriers
About
Crisis Response - During the fiscal year, TWB deployed its Words of Relief (WoR) language services in support of humanitarian assistance for refugees in Europe, Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, and displaced communities in northeast Nigeria, among others. WoR is intended to eliminate linguistic barriers that can impede vital response and relief efforts. Through WoR, TWB provided vital information in key languages of affected populations, before, during and after crises occurred. This involved developing a remote network of translators, building translation and interpreting skills locally, providing terminology tools and resources to aid consistent and accurate communication, and using technologies to ensure rapid, high-quality translation response from translation teams and better dissemination of critical content through partners.
