FCDO Services

We translated over 16,000 words to support the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's international development objectives. From October to November 2023, our Translation and Interpreting team worked to translate the UK-led draft for a new Common Approach to Protection from Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment – or CAPSEAH for short.  Working across all six official United Nations languages 🌐, the translations helped make the document ready for global consultation.
