Background
Chinese migrant workers are sometimes trapped in abusive relationships with their employers, in particular in mines, restaurants and shops. Translators are needed, especially translators that have no relationship with the employers. When there are trials between Chinese workers and their employers, judges look for "neutral" translators.
Objective
To improve Chinese migrant integration.
Activities
- Spanish language lessons for Chinese citizens.
- Accompany Chinese citizens to their place of work.
- Translations with doctors, prosecutors and when dealing with paperwork.
Extra comments :
The activities take place in greater Santiago, in the southern municipality of Puente Alto.
