Report, executive summary and annual statistics on gender-based violence

Details
Every year, Spain's National Observatory on Violence against Women publishes a report and annual statistics on gender-based violence in Spain and the efforts made by government to eradicate it. Its aim is to raise general awareness of the issue and guide public and private intervention.
The documents comprise the text of the report and the numerous Excel tables, data sheets, charts and graphs that illustrate the findings.
One of the client's key requirements was use of the subject-specific terminology employed by the UN and EC in English and French. This not only had to be consistent throughout the entire report and annexes, but also with the National Observatory's previous annual reports. Writing style was also important, as the content needed to be readily accessible to both the media and the general public.

Corporate website content and legal texts for NANO TECH ENTERPRISE

Details
Start-up Nano Tech Enterprise, which sells and distributes nanotechnology products in Middle East markets, commissioned us to translate its new website.
As it targets clients outside Spain, getting the right message across about its service offering - and doing so in the language the industry understands - was absolutely essential. The first step in this strategy was to translate the corporate website into English, timing publication to coincide with the firm's attendance and industry debut at an international show with a strong nanotechnology component.
As a new company, Nano Tech Enterprise was keen to reassure potential clients that it's a dependable partner that fully meets its legal commitments and complies with the provisions of Spain's legislation on protection of personal data (LOPD) and information society and e-commerce services (LSSICE). To underline that commitment to its international clients, the company commissioned translation of the legal disclaimers and texts that the above-mentioned laws require for compliance.

Environmental report

Details
Every year, Spain's Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Environment compiles and publishes a detailed indicator-based report on the state of the country's environment. Its aim is to provide pertinent and accurate data - gathered from reliable public and private sources - on the environment in Spain as a whole and in each of its autonomous communities/cities.
The report comprises 85 indicators (each accompanied by its corresponding graph, explanations, notes, and so on) grouped into 16 themed chapters.
One of the client's key requirements was use of the subject-specific environmental quality and assessment terminology employed by the UN and EC in English. This not only had to be consistent throughout the entire report, but also with previous publications in the series. Writing style was also important, as the content needed to be readily accessible to both the media and the general public.
