More and more organizations are demanding inclusive language. However, if English lends itself rather well to this approach, translation into French leads to many difficulties. Can we translate into inclusive French without adding a lot of weight or lengthening it? Absolutely! In this workshop, the trainer explains her preferred strategies from a variety of examples drawn primarily from her personal practice.
This training will be delivered by Caroline Tremblay.
