Actually all of the Beginners Guides are translated in the 5 UN
languages. It's actually the main point of the Beginners Guides,
that they are translated.<br>

<div>I love those videos where an artist draws a flowchart as a
visual to explain a process - no language but the message is
clear.</div>
<div>A new online guidebook could consist of a series of
flowcharts that introduce and explain each process.<br>
</div>
<div>By clicking onto the flowchart you would access the
artist's "explanation" of how the process occurs, but no
actual voice-over required - so no language barriers..</div>

I fully support this. The problem, in my opinion, is not the
language. It's the medium that the message is delivered on. In a
world where young people have stopped reading anything else than
instant messages, we need to reduce written content to short
paragraphs and add audio visual content.<br>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Hello all,<br>
<br>
a response I have received during the consultation process
of our Outreach Strategy mentioned a comment I have heard
on many occasions: how do ALSes get their members involved
in At-Large activity? (see below)<br>
<br>
There is a beginner's guide that explains how to
participate in At-Large, but it is more than three years
old.
<a class="m_-4082979173305262076moz-txt-link-freetext"

<br>
<br>
And when I read the Guide I can't help wondering why this
has not been providing a suitable answer to all the people
who have asked me this question. Are we missing the
target? How can we rectify this?<br>
<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>

Olivier,

</div>
<div>One suggestion I have is to augment the « Task
Force on ALS Engagement » section with a mention of
the difficulties some ALSes may have in explaining to
their members how they are able to participate and
helping them to understand the basic At Large
structure and dynamics so that their participation
becomes easier.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It’s certainly an issue we’ve had in the individual
users’ org and I think it would be useful to reflect
this in EURALO’s Outreach Plan.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
