I am director of Youth-LeadeR (YL). We unite dozens of world leading youth leaders and changemakers under one banner, to bring their stories, solutions, tools and services to the young generation in schools around the planet. This is why we work a lot of volunteer translators.
We use nutshell stories that fit on a card or poster, for the cardgames, poster sets, teaching tools etc. The texts are short but can be challenging since they package a lot of info and PASSION into short space. Sometimes, they include concepts that are not even known in parts of the world and countries. Such as youth leadership. German has no idea even of the spirit :-) Also, the term passion is only connotated with suffering (LEIDenschaft) in german, as if never a happy Romeo and Julia ever lived :)
You can tell when you see the positive powerful uplifting spirit in our videos. Especially the trailer video.
Our teams always love this work, for its spirit, reach into schools etc.
Maybe also for the reference of working with these heroines of our time and YL's UNESCO status.
