The Humanité-in-English Team

L’Humanité-in-English is brought to you by a network of translators and editors who provide this service on a voluntary basis, hoping that the articles we translate in English from the French daily "l’Humanité" contribute in their own modest way to building a better, more just, world.

Several of our translators have yet to send in a photo or "potted biography", so this is a sample of our team, and will be augmented as time passes.
