Description
We have a large Cortijo in a quiet valley in the heart of the Montes de Málaga, several kilometers from a mountain village . The farm covers approximately 45 hectares of rolling hills, in an idyllic, unspoilt setting, bordering the Montes de Málaga nature reserve.
Cornelio is situated in a quite unique location, at an altitude of 700 metres in Southern Andalucía. In order to improve the farm's biodiversity and to help capture carbon dioxide we are planning a large scale reforestation of the farm. We now need help with the translation of these plans from English into Spanish.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Help with Eco Projects
UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
They will gain experience in translating a large formal document from English to Spanish. The document is concerned with a large scale reforestation and the traveler would gain useful information about how such reforestation projects are planned and conducted.
Help
We are planning a large scale reforestation project here and need someone to translate our proposals and project plan into Spanish. Ideally the person should be a native Spanish speaker with a good understanding of forestation and biodiversity improvement. The project plan is ca 100 pages in length and this project would be ideal for a graduate seeking experience translating from English to Spanish or a strongly bilingual person interested in gaining experience in this type of reforestation project. It is preferred if the translation work can be carried out remotely. However there will be an on-going requirement for translation help and this could be carried out on site if the volunteer prefers to stay.
