Translation Information

The UNFPA Website offers its many thousands of pages of public information, forms and services almost exclusively in English.

However, as the Internet has developed globally, the empowerment of people around the world through increased accessibility in their own languages to the information on the Internet is also being addressed.

Increasingly, electronically-generated translation services are being offered on the Internet by various (non-INS) Websites. While most of these charge a fee for translating a page of Internet text, some offer this service for free. Below we provide links to the sites that offer free Website translation services. Note that these services use automation, and are done electronically. Therefore, the translation may not be exact -- but it is at least a start.

UNFPA does not endorse any of these services, their products, their advertisers or sponsors. UNFPA cannot guarantee the accuracy of any translations you may obtain from these sites. If you have similar websites to propose placing on this page, please contact Alvaro Serrano at serrano@unfpa.org.
