  Welcome to this Training Course on Humanitarian Translation offered by Translators without Borders.

  This course is divided into five sections:

  1. Introduction to Translators without Borders (TWB)

  2. Introduction to humanitarian translation

  3. Approaching the task of translation

  4. The translation process

  5. Quality assurance, revision, and delivery

  There is also the Test Yourself! section with a quiz to assess what you have learned throughout the course.

  This course gives you an understanding of TWB, the role played by language professionals during humanitarian crises, what the translation process entails, and how to approach it. It is not exhaustive and is not intended to replace the more in-depth and in-person training that is recommended for anyone working with language for humanitarian response.

  The course duration is approximately 4 hours, but you can take a break and come back later if you wish to do so. To complete the course you need to create a Moodle account.
