(Please pardon this English posting in the Arabic forum.)

We have been asked by Translators without Borders to forward their appeal for translators to assist with Arabic-speaking refugees in Europe. Quote:

If you are a professional translator with a minimum of 4 years of professional translation experience or 2 years of professional translation experience and a university degree in translation or related subject and wish to volunteer for Translators without Borders, please complete this form.

Please note that we are currently recruiting Arabic, French, Pashto, Farsi/Dari and Greek speakers in order to help us in our rapid response to the European refugee crisis. We regret that speakers of other languages will experience a delay in our reply.
