From Maribel Campoy:
I have two questions:
- Is there room for work in your organization for those that speak common languages such as Spanish and English?
- Is the work done remotely or are there locations around the world where volunteers would go?

From Stella Hodkin:

We talk a lot about underserved languages, but in actual fact the vast majority of our translations and language services are still in the major languages. Languages such as Spanish, French, Arabic, Portuguese, are such important pivot languages for vast areas of the globe. So we do need translators in major languages as well.
Is the work done remotely or are there locations around the world where volunteers would go?
Typically yes, the work is all done remotely, we have our TWB platform, so that means anyone can login wherever they are. On rare occasions we may have locally based opportunities, sometimes we try to organise in-person meetups… but these are exceptions rather than the rule.
