The document is a questionnaire on climate change and child protection in the Middle East and North Africa.

The Global Child Protection Area of Responsibility is seeking the support of two volunteers to translate and proofread 1 Word document (7 pages, 1879 words) from English to Arabic. One volunteer will translate the document, and the other will proofread the document afterward. The volunteers will be asked to start as soon as possible and work on the document full-time in order to finish the translation and proofreading within 1 week. The volunteers will be able to strengthen their knowledge of climate change and child protection during the process of translation. The work of the volunteers is highly valuable and will allow making the document available to Arabic-speaking audiences.

The volunteer should be fluent in English and Arabic. A background in translation, child protection, humanitarian action, or human resources is an advantage. Previous translation experience of translating to Arabic (especially documents related to human resources, child protection, or humanitarian action) is an asset. The volunteer needs to be able to work under tight deadlines.
