Tradutores

GBIF is committed to making open biodiversity data as accessible as possible, which includes enabling access to content across multiple languages with the goal to reduce the role of language as a barrier to free and open biodiversity data. Thanks to the aid and support of the volunteer translators listed below, the user interface and key content on GBIF.org now appear in twelve languages, including the six official UN languages:

• Inglês
• Árabe
• Chinese (simplified)
• Francês
• Russo
• Espanhol
• Chinese (traditional)
• Czech
• Japonês
• Polonês
• Português
• Ucraniano

Two technology platforms have supported these efforts through free non-commercial licences that enable us to streamline the work of managing our multilingual content: CrowdIn, which we use for translations of the user interface, and Contentful, the content management system used for all non-data pages on GBIF.org. We are most grateful to these and the other companies we rely on to support and maintain GBIF’s open-source infrastructure.### Posso fazer parte da comunidade de tradutores GBIF?
We are constantly creating new content across GBIF.org, and welcome the involvement of newcomers who can help us maintain progress in making free and open data even more widely accessible around the world.

If you are interested in joining our volunteer community, please complete this form to express interest in joining the GBIF volunteer community and indicate your available translation language(s).### Qual reconhecimento o GBIF dá aos seus tradutores voluntários?

Além da atribuição direta e reconhecimento do trabalho dos tradutores em páginas individuais dos vários sites do GBIF, nós premiamos Medalhas Abertas para todos os voluntários que contribuem com traduções num determinado ano.

We also expect to assess the impact of this community-led effort and use it as the basis of research, analyzing web traffic and data access across different language groups before and after the availability of translations (Amayo, González-Varo & Sutherland 2016).
