UN Volunteers is looking for 2 volunteers for clone English to Arabic translation of news stories and web content.

Volunteer Responsibilities:

The task to translate news stories and web content highlighting the work of UN DESA within fields such as sustainable development, poverty reduction, population issues, economic analysis, trade data and the monitoring of the SDGs, relates to the goal of UN DESA to make all this information accessible in the six official languages of the UN, thereby enabling the world community to make informed decisions.

DESA seeks the support of 2 online volunteers for translation. Each volunteer would be asked to translate one story per week from English to Arabic. The deadline would be 2-3 days. DESA will divide the work between the two translators so that the workload will be approximately one translation per week. UN DESA will own the rights to the product but due credit will be awarded to the responsible online volunteers.

Requirements:

Arabic native speaker.
High-level language skills in English.
The volunteer should enjoy writing, be meticulous, accurate and flexible.
Experience in working with professional translations is very much welcomed.
