Jesús Torres Del Ray & Carlos Collantes AGIS '09
Collaboration with NGOs in their multilingual needs raises many possibilities while, at the same time, presenting some dilemmas for a university's translation department. In this presentation, we would like to introduce the experience of the University of Salamanca in this field, with successful agreements signed with different humanitarian NGOs and international organisations. The University has to keep a balance between its educational goal and commitment towards its students, its special position as regards the translation/localisation discipline and profession, and its public and humanistic orientation, including its relationship with other non-profit organisations. A practical work experience system with students, tutors and strategic use of translation and localisation technology has been developed to try and accommodate all these goals and make the most of what should be a fruitful, mutually beneficial cooperation.
