As part of this commitment, we are seeking an online volunteer to transcribe and subtitle key video content. This task will involve converting spoken Moroccan Darija from selected videos into written text and providing accurate French subtitles.

The volunteer will: - Transcribe the spoken Moroccan Darija from 4 videos into written Moroccan Darija, ensuring accuracy in capturing the content and essence of the dialogue. - Translate and synchronize French subtitles for the same 4 videos, adhering to best practices in subtitling to maintain timing, readability, and context. - Work closely with the Communications Analyst to ensure translations meet the required linguistic standards and are aligned with the intended messaging. This role requires excellent command of both Moroccan Darija and French, attention to detail, and prior experience in transcription and subtitling.
