Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Saudi Arabia, Citizen Media, Digital Activism, Youth

Ahlam Safi from Saudi Arabia explains [1][ar] what motivated her to translate for Global Voices in Arabic  [2]and what she has gained from her contribution.

She blogs:

وفرّ لي موقع الاصوات العالمية فرصة نادرة لاكتساب خبرة في الترجمة ما كنت لأجدها في أي مكان آخر، وتعرفت عن طريقه على مجموعة من الشباب المدّون في مختلف الدول، واستطعت انهاء ساعات التطوع المطلوبة مني في الجامعة لخدمة المجتمع بسهولة ويسر

Global Voices provided me with a unique opportunity to gain experience in translation I wouldn't have found anywhere else. I got introduced to bloggers from different countries and managed to complete the number of volunteer hours required from me to complete my community service project which was part of my university studies with ease.
