Spanish term or phrase: a través de su Director
Hola,

Este es el contexto:

A nivel local, el trabajo se han orientado a brindar asistencia técnica a otras instituciones del sistema como: YYY (a través de su Director)

Tengo dudas acerca de usar "by means of" o "through". Entiendo que la ayuda técnica se brindó a YYY por medio de su Director.

Muchas gracias
Patricia
