Translating the Charter of Human Responsibilities from French to Wolof (Senegal), or the difficulty of translating the concept of responsibility into Wolof - 10 de abril de 2005

The job of translating the Charter was given to a group of Senegalese linguists who are national language specialists and/or promoters. Socially speaking, this group is made up of religious people (imams), national language reading and writing teachers and campaigners fighting for the use of national languages in the education system. They all master both forms of Wolof transcription: that (...)

The Charter of Human Responsibilities: from written to oral expression - 10 de abril de 2005

In order to popularise the Charter in Senegal, we opted for a comprehensive approach using diversified formats (text, audio tape).
