Greater Access to Translation Could Save Lives and Protect Human Rights in
Africa
New report from Common Sense Advisory and Translators without Borders highlights
the growing need for translation in Africa
(BOSTON) ? Translation is critical for addressing information inequalities in
Africa.
But could translation also improve economic development, health, human
rights, and safety of the citizens of Africa? Findings from a new study reveal
that the answer is ?yes.
?
A new study conducted by Common Sense Advisory on behalf of Translators without
Borders finds that translation is critical for the public health, political
stability, and social wellbeing of African nations.
The report surveyed 364
translators for African languages in 49 countries representing a total of 269
different language combinations.
The results are detailed in a new report, ?The
Need for Translation in Africa,? which is available as a free download at:
