UN & International Organisation Interpreting

Interpreting services for United Nations events, UNESCO programmes, and multilateral organisations — delivered by linguists with verifiable international organisation credentials

International organisation interpreting operates at the highest tier of the profession. The content is complex — policy, legal frameworks, technical development language — and the stakes are real. Misinterpretation in a multilateral setting can derail negotiations, misrepresent a country’s position, or undermine diplomatic process.

Orion Translations provides interpreting services for UN events, UNESCO programmes, and other international organisations from Barcelona and internationally. Our interpreters hold specific credentials from prior engagement with these institutions.

Credentials

  • United Nations — liaison officer credentials from UN events
  • UNESCO — liaison officer credentials from UNESCO programmes
  • MAEC-recognised sworn translator — Dutch–Spanish, issued by Spain’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y Cooperación)

These are specific, verifiable credentials — not generic “international experience” claims.

Interpreting Modes

  • Simultaneous interpreting — real-time interpretation in booth or via remote platform, for conferences, assemblies, and plenary sessions
  • Consecutive interpreting — speaker-and-interpreter alternation, for meetings, briefings, and working sessions
  • Liaison interpreting — accompanying interpretation for bilateral meetings, delegation visits, and protocol events

Contexts We Cover

  • Multilateral conferences — plenary sessions, working groups, side events
  • Bilateral diplomatic meetings — between delegations, officials, or technical teams
  • Development programme delivery — field programme interpreting for UNESCO, UNDP, and other agencies
  • Training and capacity building — workshops, seminars, and expert consultations delivered across languages
