Source text - Portuguese Renovar a nossa visão das sociedades do conhecimento é imprescindível num momento em que criar e compartilhar conhecimento se tornou essencial para todas as sociedades. Daqui para frente, o ponto de partida da UNESCO se mantém firme e claro – as pessoas transformam as sociedades, não as tecnologias. Novas TIC oferecem vastas oportunidades para acelerar o progresso em direção a um desenvolvimento sustentável e inclusivo, mas, sozinhas, elas não são suficientes. Empoderar individualmente mulheres e homens requer não só o acesso à informação, mas habilidades para transformá-la em conhecimento. Isso envolve ensino de qualidade, em ambientes formais ou informais, de maneira a promover a participação plena do aluno. Isso demanda políticas focadas na superação de novos modos de inclusão, como é o caso da exclusão digital, que surge em todo o mundo, entre diferentes sociedades ou mesmo dentro delas.
Translation - English Renovating our view of knowledge societies is critical at a time when creating and sharing knowledge has become essential to all societies. From this point on, UNESCO’s bottom line remains firm and clear – people, not technology, transform societies. New ICT offer vast opportunities to drive progression in sustainable and comprehensive development, but left alone, they aren't enough. Empowering men and women on an individual basis requires not only access to information but also the skills to render this information into knowledge. This entails quality education, in both formal and informal settings, in order to promote full student participation. This calls for policies focused on overcoming new methods of inclusion, as is the case in digital exclusion, which occur worldwide, between and even within different societies.

Experience
Years of experience: 11. Registered at ProZ.com: Feb 2015.
I am a qualified translator from Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese into English as I possess both an understanding of what is required to work at a job such as this and the ability to communicate with many clients in their native languages.
I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in Language Studies. There I took up courses in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese. Since graduating I have gone on to study Japanese at a private school here in San Francisco.
If you would like to know more about what I can do for your business please contact me at the email address listed above or call me at the given phone number. I am available to work full time or part time. My attached resume gives enough basic information for you to understand my background, though I’d be more than happy to answer any questions you may have in person or over the phone. Thank you for your consideration.
