[CWG-Stewardship] Provision of translation services - Participation and Outreach

[Seun Ojedeji]

+1 to the language options. However i think the charter should reflect
this[1] and the languages to be supported be determine early enough. It may
also be good to agree on what level of language translation is required
(for the meetings alone or all other content?) as this will also determine
the cost implications.

Cheers!
1. Current charter does make mention of any language requirement

How can they know whether they want to participate if there is a language barrier at this stage? How can they ask for translation services if they are not participating yet? Chicken and egg?
