Swedish to Spanish: Om de lyckas blir fängelsemuren en klättervägg - Si lo consiguen, el muro de la cárcel se convertirá en una pared de escalada. General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Journalism
Source text - Swedish Precis intill Kirsebergsanstalten ligger det som för länge sedan var fängelsedirektörens kombinerade bostad och arbetsplats. Massiva kastanjeträd skymmer delvis byggnaden. Fängelset skymtar fram bakom tvåplansvillan. I entrén finns det tre ringklockor som ser ut att
vara installerade med 30 års mellanrum. Ingen av dem funkar.
Föreningen Backa Kåkens aktiva medlemmar har styrelsemöte i direktörsvillan och senare ska de även hålla en berättarkväll. Majoriteten studerar eller arbetar med stadsplanering, stadsutveckling och arkitektur. Whiteboarden på inne kontoret skvallrar om föreningens
planer för Kirsebergsanstalten. Bryggeri. Folkhögskola. Vandrarhem. Restaurang. Mötesplats. Kontor. Vissa av föreningens idéer är ännu mer fantasirika, exempelvis att bygga ett hamam – en turkisk ångbastu.
Translation - Spanish Junto a la prisión de Kirseberg, parcialmente oculta tras imponentes castaños, se alza la que antaño fue la residencia y lugar de trabajo del director. Los frondosos árboles apenas dejan entrever la estructura. Tras la casa de dos pisos, asoma la cárcel. En la entrada hay tres timbres, instalados aparentemente con una diferencia de 30 años entre cada uno. Ninguno funciona.
Los miembros activos de la asociación Backa Kåkens se reúnen en casa del director para una sesión de la Junta Directiva, seguida de una velada de cuentacuentos. La mayoría son estudiantes de planificación urbana, desarrollo urbano o arquitectura. En el pizarrón blanco de la oficina se adivinan los planes de la asociación para la cárcel de Kirseberg: fábrica de cerveza, universidad popular, hostal, restaurante, punto de encuentro, oficina... Algunas ideas son todavía más fantasiosas, como la construcción de un hamán (baño turco).
English to Spanish: Glaciers, gender, and science - Glaciares, género y ciencia General field: Science Detailed field: Environment & Ecology
Source text - English Local, non-Western, and indigenous societies are often no more egalitarian than scientific disciplines such as glaciology, and thus they, too, experience differential representation in the production of environmental knowledges (Cochrane, 2014). Klein et al. (2014) report in their study of Tibetan herders’ understandings and observations of climate change, for example, that bias and inequality exist in those communities in Nagchu Prefecture. It was not possible to achieve gender balance in their interviews, for instance, because women repeatedly refused to be interviewed, citing their own lack of knowledge and illustrating how dominant perceptions of ‘glaciology’ can emerge, which may in some cases suppress alternative knowledges. Women often do possess different knowledge about glaciers due to many issues, such as: spending more time than men attending to livestock near Andean glaciers (Dunbar and Medina Marcos, 2012); managing agriculture, terracing, and irrigation that includes the distribution of glacier runoff in highland Peruvian communities (Bolin, 2009); being responsible for mobility, storage, and shelter amidst changes to snowfall and other cryospheric changes on the Tibetan plateau (Yeh et al., 2014); expressing water supplies in the Ganges River through spiritual frameworks that contradict hydrologic models (Drew, 2012); and responding to diminishing water supplies in Tajikistan mountains with more efficient water use practices, as opposed to men’s reactions to emigrate from their communities (Christmann and Aw-Hassan, 2015).
Translation - Spanish Las comunidades locales, no occidentales, e indígenas, no suelen ser más igualitarias que las disciplinas científicas como la glaciología y, por tanto, también experimentan una representación diferencial en la producción de conocimientos medioambientales (Cochrane, 2014). Por ejemplo, Klein et al. (2014) señalan en su estudio sobre los conocimientos y observaciones de los pastores tibetanos acerca del cambio climático que existen prejuicios y desigualdades en las comunidades de la prefectura de Nagqu. No fue posible lograr el equilibrio de género en sus entrevistas porque las mujeres se negaron repetidamente a ser entrevistadas, alegando falta de conocimientos. Esto ilustra cómo surgen percepciones dominantes de la “glaciología” que, en ocasiones, pueden suprimir conocimientos alternativos. Las mujeres suelen poseer conocimientos diferentes sobre los glaciares por diversas razones como, por ejemplo: pasar más tiempo que los hombres cuidando del ganado cerca de los glaciares andinos (Dunbar y Medina Marcos, 2012); gestionar la agricultura, el cultivo en terrazas y la irrigación, que incluye la distribución de la escorrentía de los glaciares en las comunidades de las tierras altas de Perú (Bolin, 2009); ser responsables de la movilidad, almacenamiento y refugio cuando hay nevadas u otros cambios criosféricos en la meseta del Tíbet (Yeh et al., 2014); extraer las reservas de agua en el río Ganges mediante prácticas espirituales que contradicen los modelos hidrológicos (Drew, 2012); y abordar la disminución de las reservas de agua en las montañas de Tayikistán con prácticas más eficientes del uso del agua, en contraste con la reacción de los hombres, que optan por emigrar de sus comunidades (Christmann y Aw-Hassan, 2015).

Bio
Translations tailored to your needs
My background
A translator by training and at heart, I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Translation and Interpreting, followed by a Master's in Specialized Translation where I received an Award for Best Academic Performance. I am also a passionate Spanish teacher for foreigners with nearly six years of experience in the field, and an avid art history enthusiast, currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Art History at the National University for Distance Education (UNED, Spain).
Professional Experience
My specialization is legal and institutional translation. I regularly collaborate with Swedish courts and social services, translating a wide range of documents: psychological and socio-family risk assessment reports, claims, indictments, notifications, summons, as well as information addressed to witnesses, defendants, and claimants/respondents. I ensure the highest level of terminological accuracy and full compliance with the legal context.
I believe that translation is a profession in constant evolution, which is why I pursue continuing education on a regular basis. Recently, I completed the ProZ course "Comprehensive Legal Translation: from Fundamentals to Specializations".
Beyond legal and institutional translation, I also participate in e-learning projects, translating and localizing educational technology platforms and training content for Spanish-speaking audiences. In addition, I collaborate on projects in the healthcare and life sciences fields.
