Spanish Translation Glossary:
Gender-Based Violence-Related Terms

Alboum is proud to provide the reproductive health community with a set of Spanish translation glossaries to use as a starting point. These translation glossaries include gender-neutral translations whenever possible and draw on a generic, neutral Spanish to be understandable by Spanish speakers from across Latin America.

We recommend organizations customize these glossaries to meet the needs of your audiences, content, and style, and we welcome the opportunity to help you do that. Please contact us to discuss how to create a glossary with your own term base.
