Lingua amplifies Global Voices stories by translating them into dozens of languages. We do this with the help of hundreds of volunteers from around the world.

You can join our community of Lingua translators whether you are an experienced translator, a student, or someone who speaks several languages well. The application process is simple: Fill out the form below and wait to hear back from the Translation Manager in your language.

If your language is not available, you can propose a new Lingua site. You can also subscribe to the Lingua newsletter!
