French to English translations [PRO]
Social Sciences - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. / Social housing | | French term or phrase: métiers renouvelés | The following is one of the headings in a document relating to social housing and the management thereof.
The subheadings that follow it are given below:
"L’exercice de **métiers renouvelés**
- Améliorer la gestion et la transparence des attributions
- Faciliter les parcours résidentiels
- Renforcer l’accueil dans le parc locatif social"
Another one of those where obviously the words make sense when taken perfect but sound nonsensical when put together.
Any help much appreciated.
TIA

I would translate 'métier' as role here. It's about improving the way they do things, but the subheadings will include the term 'improvements'. |
