PBI - 06470 Ciudad de México

PBI functions internally in Spanish and English so we rely heavily on a network of volunteers to translate internal PBI documents and information on our website. 

Consensus decision-making is a basic principle of PBI's ethos, so all decisions that have an impact on the whole organisation are taken by PBI's International Council after a full consultation with all PBI constituencies. Making sure that all documents relating to these decisions are available in both Spanish and English is therefore vital to PBI's functioning. By volunteering to help with translation you will play a very important role in the organisation, while at the same time learning about our work.

We try not to send more than 1,500 words with each job, although sometimes we are short of volunteers and we might ask whether you could handle more. The flow of translations is difficult to predict, so there is sometimes a lot of work, sometimes very little. Although we set deadlines, we understand that these sometimes need to be flexible depending on what other commitments you have. If you would like to become a translator please contact the International Office on admin[at]peacebrigades.org
