Participants from various sectors of society united together under the banner of achieving lasting world peace and cessation of war through the guidance of HWPL and the DPCW. 

Considering how the UN provides translation mainly into 6 languages, the WARP Summit was very extraordinary in providing translation service for so many different languages. 

The translating volunteers who united under the common language of peace greatly contributed to the delivery of peace through every word they spoke.

Interpreters were as vigilant as they could possibly be and focused all of their attention while translating for various conferences held during the Summit. 

Every single interpreter has a story to tell and we are happy to deliver the very special stories of two of these volunteers.

Spreading messages of peace transcending language barriers

Arkan Atarya is an Arab from Israel who had witnessed the conflict between the Muslim and Jewish communities. As a volunteer, she participated in the Summit to translate all conferences for Arabic-speaking people.

Some of the qualifications to be an interpreter include extensive knowledge, interest, and intellectual curiosity in the fields which they translate for. 

The translators and interpreters who volunteered for this year’s Summit had an extremely high degree of knowledge and interest in global peace and HWPL’s projects.
