The “100 Language Challenge for Interdependence”
When we released A Declaration of Interdependence, we also launched the 100 Language Challenge. In just three months, scores of impassioned volunteers from around the globe provided translations for 66 world languages. These translations were made possible through our wonderful partnership with dotSUB.
We want to thank all of the translators who took part in our first translation challenge. By doing so, you have made visible your commitment to our collective interdependence.
All 66 languages are now available on the youtube page. You can also view all of our wonderful volunteer translators at this page here.
Getting a total of 100 languages proved to be much more difficult than we originally had though, but we hope to reach this goal with our all of our films. Please visit this page to find out more.
