In the framework of the WinWin Programme, this business case study was developed and report delivered in English and Portuguese. We would like to have the Spanish versions in order to disseminate across UNW offices in Latin America.

Translation to Spanish of 2 documents. One is a PPT of 80 slides (most of them are graphs that do not need translation) and the other one is a PDF of 44 pages. Since they are not technical texts, it is rather simple and in a week (more or less) with 11-20 hs. of dedication (per week) the task would be completed.

The documents will be shared with the person selected through e-mail.
