What you will do:

  • Translate texts—an article, an interview, or a social media post. Deadlines are flexible and large texts could be split between two translators.
  • While translating, search for reliable sources to link them as a reference material (it’s always in the original text, the equivalent in the translation language is what we are looking for).
  • Use Google Drive, Telegram chat, and Trello to work and communicate.

We Need Translators:

  • English—French/Russian—French
  • English—German/Russian—German
  • English—Czech/Russian—Czech

If one of these languages is native for you, we are also looking for a proofreader to check the translated text for inconsistencies and faults of speech.

What does it take?

  • 4-5 hours per week to work on a project.

What do you get?

  • Access to mentorship and training under the guidance of experienced volunteers, providing the opportunity to learn new techniques and gain valuable experience.
  • Experience in translating texts on socially meaningful matters.
  • Participation in building an inclusive and supportive community.

Our stand on the Russian invasion to Ukraine

Russia started the war against Ukraine. This war is happening from 2014. It has only intensified on February 24th 2022. Milions of Ukrainians are suffering. The perpetrators of this must be brought to justice for their crimes.

Russian regime tries to silence its liberal voices. Russian people against the war exist - and the Russian regime tries its best to silence them. We want to prevent that and make their voices heard.

Connection is crucial. The Russian liberal initiatives are hard to read for European public at times. The legal, social and historical context of Russia is not always clear. We want to share information, build bridges and connect the liberal Russia with The West.

We believe in dialogue, not isolation. The oppositional powers in Russia will not be able to change anything without the support of the democratic world. We also believe that the dialogue should go both ways.

The choice is yours. We understand the anger for the Russian crimes. It is up to you whether you want to listen to the Russian people standing against this.
