Накратко на български
Преводът на информация при бедствия, например при трансгранични кризи с хора, говорещи различни езици, е основният обект на анализ. Този подход помага за намаляване на риска от наранявания и предотвратява засилването на уязвимостта на малцинствените общности.

The INTERnAtional network on Crisis Translation
Access to timely and accurate information is known to be of crucial importance for disaster prevention and management. It has been proposed that timely and accurate information in humanitarian response is a human right and as important as medical supplies, food and water. There is awareness of the fact that disasters are frequently transboundary in nature and that affected populations may be multicultural and multilinguistic. Yet, the importance of the role of translation in providing this information is understudied and under recognised. The negative consequences of poor or no communication in disasters may include increased injury or death. Lack of communication can also mean increased vulnerability of minority communities. Recognising the need for translation will reduce these negative consequences. By carrying out collaborative research and training, the International Network in Crisis Translation sought to address this gap so that translation of information is a default feature in disaster prevention and management.

Цел на проекта
We propose to establish an interdisciplinary, intersectoral and international research and innovation network in Crisis Translation, called INTERACT. Crisis Translation is understood here as the translation of written information from one linguistic and cultural system to another in the context of a crisis scenario, with a view to enabling affected communities and responders to be prepared for crises, improve resilience and reduce the loss of lives. Due to the transboundary nature of modern day crises, crisis communication must be multilingual and multilingual crisis communication is enabled through translation. Multilingual information access through translation addresses work programme aims such as social fairness and democratic access to essential information for all. The primary focus of INTERACT is on health-related crisis content. The main objectives of the project are 1) to make meaningful and effective contributions to knowledge, policies, expertise, training and technology that enable accurate and timely translation-enabled crisis communication, with a particular focus on health-related content; 2) to improve outcomes for crisis-affected and at-risk communities by contributing to translation-enabled communication to, with and from those communities; 3) to enhance human skills, competences and cross-sectoral collaboration across academic, humanitarian, and industrial sectors involved in crisis translation. This will be achieved by focusing on five main topics: crisis communication policy, comprehension in limited proficiency communities, crisis machine translation, citizen translator education, and ethics and through collaboration across academic, SME, NGO, and Multinational partners. The contribution of INTERACT will be a much broader, better informed, innovative, much more impactful perspective on the challenges of crisis communication and the role of translation.
