Details

Computing For Humanity aims to expand its reach to French-speaking audiences by translating its entire website from English to French. The project involves accurately translating all web content, including text, menus, and any embedded documents, while maintaining the original meaning and tone. This project will allow learners to apply their language skills and technical knowledge in a real-world setting. The goal is to create a seamless bilingual experience for users, ensuring that the French version of the website is as user-friendly and informative as the English version. This project will also involve some basic web development tasks to integrate the translated content into the existing website structure.

Deliverables

- A fully translated French version of the Computing For Humanity website.


- A report detailing the translation process, challenges faced, and how they were overcome.


- A quality assurance document that includes feedback from native French speakers to ensure accuracy and cultural relevance.


- Updated website files with the integrated French content, ready for deployment.

Mentorship

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

Computing for Humanity, previously known as Cancer Computer, is a charity based in Ottawa, Canada. While it originally focused on supporting cancer research, it now extends its scope to include other diseases, climate change, agriculture, COVID-19 research, and technology integration for public safety. The organization provides researchers with High-Performance Computing power both nationally and internationally.

Founded in 2015, our founder, Roy Chartier, discovered a deficiency which was negatively impacting researchers, being their limited access to computing power. It was revealed that only a small percentage of research obtains adequate computing power, an essential component to meet research requirements and drill down on the findings of research.

Computing for Humanity was born from this niche with the mission to provide researchers with the computing resources they need to uncover medical advancements destined to improve human life with the goal that no medical advancement should be waiting in line for computing time.
