CLEAR Global is proud to collaborate with partners dedicated to making a difference in the lives of people around the world. By supporting them in their missions, we can achieve our own – of helping people to get vital information and be heard, whatever language they speak.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

UK-based charity ecancer is dedicated to improving cancer care globally through education. They believe cancer patients everywhere deserve the best care. By providing high-quality knowledge of cancer treatment, they help healthcare professionals to improve their skills, in contexts ranging from Latin America to India and Nepal and from Cambodia to Tanzania and Senegal. Increased access to resources and education leads to improvements in patient care.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The organization hosts <\/span>ecancermedicalscience<\/span><\/a>, an open-access cancer journal that serves under-resourced communities. The journal’s goal is to help reduce global inequalities in cancer care and treatment by providing free access to all articles immediately upon publication.<\/span><\/p>

The journal welcomes articles on a wide range of topics related to cancer, including molecular biology, genetics, epidemiology, and controlled trials, especially those that are independent or publicly funded. It also considers articles related to health systems, cancer policy, and regulatory aspects of cancer care. The comprehensive scope of ecancermedicalscience makes it an important platform for advancing research and knowledge in the fight against cancer, particularly in communities that might otherwise lack access to such resources.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cThanks to TWB, we break down language barriers, improve accessibility, and empower diverse communities. This partnership reinforces our commitment to inclusive cancer care.\u201d<\/em>
Dr Federic Bakal, Fundaci\u00f3n Arturo Lopez Perez (FALP), Chile<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The partnership with Translators without Borders (TWB, now part of CLEAR Global) began nearly ten years ago, because ecancer were aware of the importance of language in reaching a global audience. They recognized that breaking down language barriers was crucial to achieving their mission. This understanding came from feedback received from readers, authors, and collaborators who struggled to access or understand content as a result of language issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Accurate translations help healthcare professionals stay informed about global developments, share their insights, and ultimately improve patient care. CLEAR Global\u2019s partnership with ecancer is a way of removing the language barriers that block the spread of vital medical information on cancer care, enabling diverse communities to access cancer care information in their own language. This is in line with ecancer\u2019s mission of offering complete, patient-centered cancer care and supporting healthcare professionals in delivering quality services to people affected by cancer globally.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Culturally appropriate translation helps expand access and build trust<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

To achieve this, ecancer adapted their approach, prioritizing key content for translation, working with language experts, and creating user-friendly multilingual interfaces. They focused on reaching out to diverse communities in languages such as English, Spanish, Hindi, Telugu, Bengali, French, German, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese.<\/span><\/p>


Through its partnership with CLEAR Global, ecancer became even more aware of the role language and effective communication play in the medical field. Effective communication is more than just translation; it calls for a deep understanding of cultural differences, and adapting content accordingly. Working with language experts ensured that the content was translated according to the cultural and linguistic needs of target audiences. This led to better engagement and trust, facilitating meaningful interactions, knowledge sharing and collaboration in the global healthcare community.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>In addition to content for healthcare professionals, the collaboration has extended to crucial patient-facing content. By translating and subtitling materials such as <\/span>Relieving Cancer Pain at Home<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>The Cancer Patient’s Role in the Decision-Making Process<\/span><\/i>, and resources on managing pain and the emotions that come with it, CLEAR Global and ecancer have made critical information directly accessible to cancer patients.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The partnership also has the benefit of making the findings of research conducted in other languages available in English, enabling it to reach a wider audience and influence global practice. One such collaboration was the translation from Spanish to English of <\/span>Knowledge, Practice, and Communication Barriers for Oncology Doctors in Chile When Addressing the Sexuality of their Patient<\/span><\/i>s.<\/span><\/p>

This study examines the communication challenges oncologists in Chile face when discussing patient sexuality. Cancer and cancer treatment can greatly impact a patient’s sexual wellbeing, with consequences for their quality of life, self-image and relationships. That makes effective communication about sexual health an important aspect of oncology. The study highlights a gap between recognizing the importance of sexuality and actual clinical practice, revealing a need for institutional support and training to better integrate sexual health discussions into cancer care.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

As the project relied on volunteer translators, the project manager, Giulia <\/span>Gasperoni,<\/span> sought out community members with experience in the medical field to ensure accuracy and quality. To maintain high levels of engagement and motivation, she ensured that community members had as much context and information as possible. When a community member claimed a translation task, Giulia reached out to share references and additional information. She also provided more background on ecancer and explained how the translated texts would contribute to its mission. Follow-up emails checked on the volunteers\u2019 needs and offered assistance, making sure they knew their contribution was valued<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Finding the right linguists from within the TWB community to revise the translation was a challenge for such a large and highly specialized text, especially as the deadline was tight. One of CLEAR Global\u2019s in-kind sponsors, Surrey Translation Bureau, stepped in to offer the services of their linguists to complete the project.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Established in 1984, Surrey Translation Bureau has been an in-kind sponsor of CLEAR Global for several years, formalizing its support in 2021. This work forms part of STB\u2019s corporate social responsibility framework, which aims to make a positive impact beyond the core business operations of the company.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We\u2019re proud to work with expert medical linguists who share our values and our translator appreciated the additional context provided by the ecancer team as this helped bring the material to life, improving the overall quality of the final text. To know we\u2019ve played a part in improving the outcomes for cancer patients is incredibly rewarding to the whole team at STB.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>
