Public Q&A

What should a client clarify before beginning work around Multilingual & Inclusive Digital Services?

Multilingual & Inclusive Digital Services · 2026-08-15

Before going deep into multilingual & inclusive digital services, the project needs a shared view of the problem, the users, the important stakeholders and the current environment. Using Drupal 8 and its multilingual capability, the team created a website that can automatically translate English content into over 64 languages using google translate, and also allow manual human translation to be published when they were made available. Home Affairs can now instantly publish English content and translate it into over 64 languages with the click of a button. Annex's published methods also make content, integrations, accessibility, operational workflow and delivery constraints relevant when they affect the outcome. That context allows the team to choose an approach without pretending the solution is known before discovery.
