“What if we could make a bigger difference than anything we’ve done so far?”

We can do this by partnering, creating coalitions and working together: “a broad, multi-stakeholder alliance for digital cooperation” as suggested by the UN report on June 2019. This is the best way to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Everyone in Translation Commons is committed to this vision and we pledge to be the coordinating force between all of us, to connect and channel our expertise where, when and how it is needed.

Shared Vision:

a world where all people have equal opportunities in their own language


Current Partners

We meet regularly and update, discuss and plan our next steps. Our cooperation is in creating free resources and guidelines for the various steps of digitizing languages.

Strategic Plan

We ask all our fellow organizations to join us in creating a Strategic Plan for our Coalition. By creating a workflow we will be able to claim the steps we are able to contribute and assist indigenous communities. Please contact us and let us know by filling the form, what you do and how your work fits with the above three objectives.



The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA) created the document "Maximizing the impact of partnerships for the SDGs" in order to support organizations and partnerships to maximize the value created by collaboration towards the Sustainable Development Goals.

The guidebook deconstructs what “value” means and the types of value that partnerships can create. It also explores the range of partnerships that can be established and how the nature of the partnership influences the type of value created for the partner and for beneficiaries. Understanding these issues in greater detail should support organizations in the process of identifying designing and managing effective partnerships that deliver the greatest value, and to think more ambitiously and creatively about how they partner.

This is a practical guide focused on maximizing the value of partnership and not a comprehensive exploration of cross-sector partnerships. It is intended to complement and extend other more detailed accounts of the principles and practice of cross-sector partnership.

Funding Opportunities

We all have experienced difficulties in getting grants and funding. If we all share information on agencies providing funding globally, we may stand a better chance to find suitable grants whereas alone, we may never come across them. We can also find many opportunities to partner together, one, two or more of our organizations. Please add any links or information you have on the form below and we will regularly be publishing the new information:
