Help translate ADP
ADP's framework is published openly so it can reach practitioners worldwide. Open licensing without translation reaches a fraction of the people who could use it. Volunteer translators make the difference.
Why translation matters
The development and social-innovation communities the Social Innovation Manual is built for span every region and language. A manual that exists only in one language serves only the practitioners who happen to read it fluently — a small subset of the people who do this work.
Volunteer translators expand who the framework can reach. Every translator is credited by name on every page they translate.
What can be translated
There are two things you can translate:
- The Social Innovation Manual. The primary work — a substantial document. Most translation effort goes here.
- The ADP website. Roughly twenty pages of supporting content describing ADP, SIPC, trainer accreditation, and the rest.
You can volunteer for either one or both.
