Additional Works

Global Translation (May 2015- onwards)
 Reasons for Global Translation Project
 Finding Languages to be Considered
 Finding Voluntarily Translators
 Major Challenges
 Overcoming Challenges
 Project Progress Outlines

 Extension of 'Global Marketing' project with an aim to reach non-English speaking
populations in many regions of the world.
 The Website of European Union, Book2.De are providing same information in multiple
languages became initial inspiration for this project.
 Expansion in internet access in many parts of the world will allow benefits to be multiplied in
future.
 Multiple language versions will allow an increase in benefits of open educational methods.
 The project falls in line with a vision to check the competence for working at "Global Scale".
 Last but not least, after the attempts by some individuals in the past, the project will also
helpes in prevnting duplication/copying of 'Zero Cost MBA'.
Reasons for Global Translation Project

 Available statistics, Wikipedia, and guidance from different internet forums were used as basis
for preparation of a list of relevant languages.
 Official languages were given priority based on their number of speakers.
 Languages undergoing revival through various efforts were given extra consideration.
(Amazigah in Algeria, Maori in NewZeland, Aymara in Bolivia etc)
 Languages, expected to have significant number of speakers with access to the internet were
also taken into consideration.
 Countries with many official languags, those languages spoken by apprximately 50%
(together) of the population were considered. (South Africa, India).
 A few languages with any of the 3 factors (significant number of speakers, impact on culture,
and the economic role) have been selected to be translated to. (Sanskrit in India, Dzongkha in
Bhutan)
Finding Languages to be Considered

 Friends, professional colleagues, and alumni networks were approached to help with the
translation of 'Zero Cost MBA'.
 Different leads were generated through social media to approach individuals of countries to
which no connection existed before.
 Language promotion associations, governmental organizations, expat communities were
approached in countries like Ireland, Mali, Armenia, Bhutan, and Azerbaijan.
 Ethnic and historical roots were explored in finding translators of similar language families of
a region.
Finding Voluntarily Translators

 Majority of individuals approached not having 'translator' background. They were reluctant to
attempt the translation of documents into their mother-tongue.
 Many approached individuals were not using their mother-tongue frequently. Thus, finding
the right person proved very difficult for many languages.
 Fluency in different aspects of language (speaking, understanding, reading) did not reflect the
actual writing fluency of many individuals.
 Many languages are tonal in nature and not providing practical vocabulary for a good
translation.
 Cultural and time-zone differences created some difficulties when communicating with people
in different parts of the world.
 Many English words did not have the equivalent words in other languages. A detailed
explanation of a concept led to translation of those words by alternative and similar words.
 Lack of internet acces in some countries made it difficult to find potential supporters.
Major Challenges

Overcoming Challenges
 Benefits for society and the need for a readable, not necessarily perfect, translation convinced
many individuals to attempt translating the document.
 Demographic advantages were used to address problems of lacking internet connectivity.
(Migrant communities settled in countries with better internet access were approached.)
 Linguistic similarities helped in the translation process by replacing English as a base
language.
(Turkmen translation using Turkish, Cantonese translation using Mandarin)
 Sentences were re-written to fit according to existing vocabulary of tonal languages.
 Exercised a lot of patience when waiting for e-mails, follow-ups, and sharing of the work.
 Many individuals helped to find other translators in their neighbouring countries.
 Project Management methodology has been adapted for maintaining a good overview of the
entire project.

statistics from different parts
of the world.

 United Nations Geo-Scheme designed by United Nations Statistical Divison(UNSD) has been
used to divide world into regions and subregions.
 Flags of the countries in this presentation are scaled down to fit the size. They are only meant
for representation purposes.
 In case of many dialects of a language, translation has been done in the standard version.
 All the translation were done by people with non-translator background. They need to be read
accordingly.
 Despite consistent efforts, the 'Zero Cost MBA' project summary could not yet be translated
into all the listed languages.
 Many languages are interchangeably usable, thereby efforts were focussing on getting work
translated into only one of them.

 Concept of open education, online learning is still a rare phenomenon in many parts of the
world. (Lack of internet access, major resources are still available in English, lack of
awareness)
 Increase in digital infrastructure will allow more people to experience online education.
(Estimated time frame: 5-15 years)
 Efforts by the governments and regional universities to focus on online education will
improve availability of content in non-English languages.
 'Global Translation Project' will act as a supporting hand to above mentioned initiatives in
increasing access of quality education to everyone in the world.
 'Zero Cost MBA', 'Global Manager' concepts and learning strategies will continue to inspire
digital savvy future generations in designing their own educational path.
