    Description

    We have ongoing needs for occasional help from translators fluent in any dialect of Arabic, Farsi, Pashto, Dari, Urdu, and almost any other language. We could use assistance with any region’s Arabic, from Syria/Gulf to Egypt to North Africa. We also could use speakers of Armenian, Georgian, Ukrainian, and Russian.

    Training: minimal

    Time Commitment: 2-3 hours a week for Arabic, very occasional for other languages

    Requirements: Need to be comfortable talking with fellows from your own country – we recognize that many folks will be in some immigration or asylum process and have their own confidentiality issues. Often you can use an alias.

    Fun: Help others from your home country escape. If you have fled oppression yourself, this is one of the most effective things you can do to fight back against the conditions that made you flee.
