OBJECTIVE OF THE ASSIGNMENT | SCOPE OF WORK | EXPECTED DELIVERABLES
Background
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health and economic threat in Africa, yet the use of economic evaluation to guide AMR planning, prioritization, and financing remains limited. In response, the African Society for Laboratory Medicine (ASLM) is implementing the Building Economic Assessment Capacity for One Health AMR Interventions in Africa (BEACOI-Africa) project. The project will develop a bilingual regional curriculum, associated learning materials, and a blended learning program to strengthen African capacity to design, conduct, interpret, and use economic evaluations of AMR interventions across human, animal, and environmental health sectors. The curriculum comprises 10 modules organized across four domains, supported by African case studies, practical tools and templates, and competency-based assessment materials.
To support this bilingual delivery requirement, ASLM seeks to recruit two Professional Translation Consultants who will translate the full curriculum package from English to French or French to English, working under the coordination of the ASLM Learning Experience Manager and with technical review support from the Co-Curriculum Leads and bilingual Subject Matter Experts.
Purpose of the Consultancy
The purpose of this assignment is to provide professional translation (English/French, French/ English) of all BEACOI-Africa curriculum materials, ensuring that translated content is terminologically accurate, contextually appropriate for professional audiences, and formatted for seamless integration into the ASLM Academy’s digital learning platform.
