Abstract:

Sexual health campaigns to tackle the rise in sexually transmitted
infections in England are at the core of sexual health charities' and
grassroots organizations' work. Some of them collaborated with the
author's translation students to produce inclusive translations of
their sexual health content (website and multimedia content). The role
of translation and localization within multicultural contexts can be
seen as 'social activism' promoting sexual health and community
engagement, with a view to providing wider healthcare access and
information using inclusive language. This Element presents students'
approaches to sexual health translation, using language as a vessel
for change and striking a balance between clients' expectations,
translation industry best practices, and socio-educational needs. The
data analysis of the students' experiences will make the case for
wider embedding of queer pedagogy approaches into the translation
curriculum.
