Project Lingua

IIC is committed to developing ways in which the world community of
preservation professionals can communicate and has launched Project
Lingua, a voluntary global effort by IIC members to translate a
variety of transcripts from the events produced by the initiative
Dialogues for the New Century:

    <URL:http://www.iiconservation.org/dialogues/>

Thus, the edited transcripts produced from the events that make up
Dialogues for the New Century are now available in a number of
languages. This has been made possible by a growing number of
dedicated professionals, the Linguas, who have taken the time to
translate the edited transcripts into a variety of languages. Simply
click on the language tab listed for each transcript and it will
take you to a PDF file in that particular language.

Within the next month many of these transcripts will be available in
French, German, Greek, Japanese, Croat, Arabic and Turkish... and
soon Polish, Korean, Farsi, Portuguese, Spanish and Hebrew.

If you speak a language other than English and would like to be part
of this exciting new initiative contact the IIC office and become a
Lingua! As more languages are added every month,  you may still not
see a transcript in the language you are looking for--you can check
back or join this effort today and become a Lingua. IIC is committed
to sharing information, since sharing professional knowledge
benefits and expands each member of the conservation community and
ultimately draws that community closer together. But we cannot do
this alone. We need your help. Make a real difference to the
international conservation community via IIC.

Contact IIC at iic<-at->iiconservation<.>org and give your time and talent
to this exciting and worthy global effort.
