Trabalho de tradução da lingua portuguesa para inglesa

Abstract

This final project aims to independently translate Zambia’s National HIV and AIDS Communication and Advocacy Strategy 1 for 2019-2023, developed by the National HIV/AIDS/STI/TB Council (NAC) 2 . This body, subordinate to the Government of Zambia, works in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and local and international partners, coordinating and supporting the response to HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and tuberculosis in the country. The strategy in question is of a technical nature, with a specific focus on public health, particularly in the area of ​​HIV and AIDS. The document presents a set of actions developed by the National HIV/AIDS/STI/TB Council (NAC) of Zambia for the prevention and control of HIV and AIDS in the country. This document is aimed at a broad and diverse audience, including the general population, risk groups, young people, adolescents, people living with HIV and organisations such as NGOs, civil society, donors and policy makers, but mainly at health sector professionals, so that it can serve as guidance for strategic plans in the health sector. The text National HIV and AIDS Communication and Advocacy Strategy of Zambia was chosen for my final project because it is related to the professional position I currently hold as Health Communications Officer and because of my great interest in acquiring more knowledge about strategies to combat the HIV and AIDS pandemic and promote public health. This document presents strategies that add value to my work and consequently to my professional development. It should be noted that, after an exhaustive search, I was unable to find a translation of the document into Portuguese. In the context of this work, which is a technical translation exercise, several challenges associated with the complexity of the document were identified, since it is a technical text, but strategies were also identified to overcome the problems encountered. This project is not limited to presenting a faithful and contextualized translation, but also to reflect on the translation process itself, highlighting the challenges, methods and strategies used to ensure clear and precise communication(TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
