Translating the Adolescent Kit
All of the Adolescent Kit for Expression and Innovation's resources are available in English (web pages and PDF) and in Arabic, French, Spanish and Farsi (PDF) in the Activity Box and Resources. Selected resources are also available in additional languages, including Bahasa Indonesia, Thai, Italian and Ukrainian on the Adapted resources and publications page.
UNICEF also has guidance and resources to support programme teams wishing to translate the Adolescent Kit into new languages. Those resources include text-only versions of the Adolescent Kit guides, tools and activities for use by translators. Design files (INDD format) are included, which graphic designers can use with translated text to recreate new guides, tools and activities using the same design, color scheme, fonts and icons as the original Adolescent Kit. If you are considering translating the Adolescent Kit into a new language, contact us for access to the resources.
