The '''ICANNWiki Translation Initiative''' is a long-term project to enhance global understanding of key concepts by providing content in Spanish and Chinese. ICANNWiki is partnering with organizations across Asia and South America to build standalone, interconnected wikis in these languages, with the goal of expanding into Arabic, French and Swahili by 2020. Providing content in languages other than English unites our community in a shared sense of understanding. Outside of simultaneous interpretation available at conferences, our initiative provides a service rarely seen within the Internet governance sphere: factual, unbiased content in multiple languages.

'''ICANNWiki''' is the indispensable resource for the ICANN community and people interested in internet governance. As an open platform managed by the community for the community, we provide valuable, up-to-date information that can be hard to find elsewhere.

 

ICANNWiki is independent from ICANN. In line with traditional [[ICANNWiki#Wiki Values|Wiki Values]], we maintain a [[NPOV|Neutral Point of View]] in our content creation methods and site usage policies.

* Ensuring that your community is interested in learning and translating Internet governance content means translating can be sustainable and useful

 

* Bringing others on board means that one person alone will not be responsible for the success of the project

''ICANNWiki is a 501(c)(3) non-Profit, and all membership contributions are tax-deductible in the U.S.''

 

* Check which skills your participants have: are they experts on a topic, but not the strongest when it comes to multilingualism? Consider pairing this person with someone with less subject knowledge and more translations know-how.
