The International human tights arena as an area of opportunity for language professionals - Alexandria, VA American Translator Association march-april 2016 - p.22-23 - Bimonthly - The ATA Chronicle : number 2, volume XLV, Mar/Apr 2016 vol. 45, n. 2 .

International human rights organizations need language professionals who wake up each day wanting to do something meaningful and positively challenging. Let's take a look at this area of opportunity and what it takes to cater to such clients. The Human Rights Arena as? an Area of Opportunity. The human rights arena is a profitable and rewarding area of opportunity for language professionals. Those entering this field might choose to work externally for governments or non-state entities (e.g., non-governmental organizations [NGOs], human rights activists), or else in-house for international organizations such as the United Nations. The field is vast and there are numerous clients throughout the world in need of qualified professionals. As international organizations broaden the scope of players by allowing more actors into an area that was once reserved for member states of the UN alone, the horizon also broadens for language professionals with an interest in making a difference.
