Purchasing of translation system

На русском языке

Eesti keeles

There is a saying that a person who knows many languages has several keys for one lock. Knowing languages opens up new opportunities and expands our horizon. It gives us the opportunity to travel to another world without leaving our country.

There are 6900 languages in the world. This, however, means that the languages do not only enrich our world but also create boundaries. We have experienced that in various occasions in Estonia where, most of all, we have had to deal with three different languages. Given the variety of languages it seems like a small number but it may bring some complications when organizing an event.

We have found that in order to keep the world understandable and enriching for all the participants in our events we need simultaneous translation equipment.

The system that we are looking for should ensure comfortable and full participation of people from various nationalities in such events as Noortepäevad, PPP, Kevadpidustused, seminars, camps etc. The system should allow simultaneous translation to at least 50 people and at least into 2 languages.

The system consists of:
1) transmitter  - interpreter will sit away and work without creating or being interrupted by noise of translation;
2) receivers which people can comfortably carry around and listen to the chosen translation;
3) other details such as charges, earplugs, cases for details etc...

For translation of multiple languages several transmitters are required which would work in different frequencies. Receivers can then be adjusted to receive the desired frequency.

The cost of such system is estimated to be ca 6000 EUR.

To gather such amount we would like to appeal you to donate for that purpose. 

Many God's blessings!
