Hola estimado(a)s colegas,
En estos momentos estoy trabajando en la traducción de un informe de avance de una ONG y tengo una pequeña duda con respecto a una expresión.
Les comparto el extracto que contiene mi duda:
Texto fuente:
De acuerdo a su misión, visión y causa, PCE ha asumido el compromiso de apoyar a la niñez nacional ante situaciones de crisis o vulnerabilidad social que se presenten en el país.
In keeping its mission, vision and cause PCE has taken on the commitment to support national children going through crisis or social vulnerability ...
Any suggestion?

that might infiltrate the country
Not exactly literal, but I think it's the correct slant, in this case.

: Why "infiltrate"? It's inappropriate here.

Don't agree that it's inappropriate at all since one is talking about a couple of very negative things, "crises" and "vulnerability"

Spanish term (edited):
ante situaciones de crisis o vulnerabilidad social que se presenten en el país.
[See below.]
de apoyar a la niñez nacional ante situaciones de crisis o vulnerabilidad social que se presenten en el país.
=
in order to help XXX children cope with any crises or situations resulting in social vulnerability that might arise.
*******
For “XXX,” insert the appropriate adjective for the country (Bolivian, Venezuelan, etc.). Handling the translation in this way will result in more concise and natural English than slavishly replicating the structure of the Spanish.
Also: “Might” rather than “may,” and I think that adding “any” is important here.

potential
Here's another idea:
"...support the country's children nationwide in potential situations of crisis or social vulnerability..."
"...support the country's children nationwide in potential situations of crisis or social vulnerability..."
Something went wrong...
