Girl Powered Nutrition

WAGGGS is an organisation that welcomes (mostly) girls of all ages, but offers most of its programmes to girls between the ages of 6 and 18.

To ensure that the content is tailored to the interests of these girls, the editorial teams often work on three activity packs for the same topic, or on a single pack with three different parts depending on the age group.

When translating this type of project, it is important to use a translation approach that is adapted to the way girls speak.

The activity pack for 6-10 year olds will therefore have examples in language that is easier to understand than the one for 16 year olds and above.

The difficulties with this type of project lie in adapting the tone.

Even though they cover the same topic, it is important not to overlook all the subtle nuances that the editorial team insists on, so that the content is truly relevant to each girl according to her age.

Here, the Girl Powered Nutrition activity pack deals with the topic of nutrition, and goes into greater or lesser depth in explaining the scientific aspects of the topic depending on the age group.
