Source text - Spanish Niñas y niños con buenas defensas, peso y vista
gracias a la vitamina A y Chispitas nutricionales
Los resultados de la administración de vitamina A y chispitas nutricionales a niñas y niños bolivianos son positivos, además de crecer logrando tallas y pesos adecuados a su edad y buena vista, también su sistema inmunológico ha sido fortalecido de tal manera que la incidencia de enfermedades y sobre todo los habituales resfríos ha sido menor o la superan sin sobresaltos. Pero además las madres de estas niñas y niños asimilan la importante información que en los centros de salud se les brinda sobre la importancia de estos micronutrientes como refuerzo a la alimentación habitual de sus hijos, así como la importancia de alimentarlos con una dieta equilibrada basada en productos favorables a su crecimiento.
“Rosita tiene tres años y siete meses. Está grande para su edad, me dice el doctor y está con buen peso también, con 17 kilos. Ella enfrenta mejor los resfríos, alguna vez enferma, pero no es fuerte, pienso que es por todo lo que el dan en el hospital, la vitamina A, las chispitas. Yo cumplí con todos los controles siempre”, cuenta Mercedes, una de las mamás que espera su turno en el Hospital México de Sacaba, departamento de Cochabamba, con el objetivo de hacer un control de salud para su niña.
Translation - English Boys and girls have strong immune systems, adequate weight and good vision thanks to the provision of vitamin A and nutritional sprinkles
The provision of vitamin A and nutritional sprinkles to Bolivian girls and boys has had positive results. The children have grown and attained appropriate height and weight for their ages, and they now have good vision. Their immune systems are stronger, reducing the frequency of illnesses, particularly colds, and speeding recovery when illnesses do occur. Furthermore, through information provided by local clinics, their mothers have learned about the importance of the micronutrients in fortifying their children’s daily nutrition and the importance of providing a balanced diet based on foods that promote growth.
Mercedes, one of the mothers waiting for her daughter’s regular check-up at Hospital Mexico, in Sacaba, in the Department of Cochabamba, tell us, “Rosita is three years and seven months old. She’s big for her age. The doctor tells me her weight is good, at 17 kilos. She copes with colds better. Sometimes she gets sick, but not very sick. I think it’s because of everything they give her at the hospital – the vitamin A, the sprinkles. I’ve taken her to all the check-ups, always.”

Source text - Spanish Considerando que actualmente los mercados demandan productos más sanos y naturales, Heifer International promueve el consumo de alimentos provenientes de animales libres de estrés y confinamiento. Entre estos alimentos están los huevos libre de jaula que, además de ser un producto de autoconsumo para los productores y sus familias, les ayuda a generar ingresos a través de su venta en mercados locales y regionales. Asimismo, el proyecto Mujeres Emprendedoras Rurales busca mejorar su capacidad productiva y comercial, mediante el fortalecimiento de sus habilidades y prácticas de gestión empresarial para que accedan a fuentes de recursos económicos y a servicios financieros. También ayudan a fortalecer el capital social en las comunidades a las que pertenecen.
Entre los pilares del proyecto es la vinculación del productor de huevo libre de jaula con el mercado local, fomentando la coordinación de los productores con cooperativas o emprendimientos sociales (FOAB) en Yucatán, Oaxaca, Chiapas y Puebla, utilizando distintos modelos de negocio.
Translation - English As markets now demand healthier, more natural products, Heifer International promotes the production and consumption of foods from confinement- and stress-free animals. Among these foods are cage-free eggs, which provide food for the farming families as well as enabling them to generate income through the sale of surplus eggs on the local and regional markets. The Rural Women Entrepreneurs project also seeks to strengthen the skills and capacities of the project participants by developing their business management skills and practices, to enable them to access funding sources and financial services. Finally, the project helps strengthen social capital in the women’s communities.
Among the pillars of the project is linking the producers of cage-free eggs with the local market and enhancing the coordination between the producers and cooperatives or social businesses (farmer-owned agricultural businesses, or FOABs) in Yucatan, Oaxaca, Chiapas and Puebla, using a variety of business models.

Source text - English Lastly, it is important to mention that Codex Alimentarius developed Guidelines on the Prevention and Control of Food Fraud, with the purpose of providing guidance to competent food safety authorities and food business operators on the detection, prevention, mitigation, and control of food fraud to help protect the health of consumers, and to ensure fair practices in food trade, including feed for food producing animals. This guidance is intended to support or supplement existing Codex texts by providing additional guidance specific to food fraud that can be considered within national food control systems.

Spanish/English translator, interpreter and editor specialized in international development and social change. Over 20 years' experience serving international development organizations and practitioners as well as national and international NGOs. Extensive experience in the field of small-scale agriculture and related fields (e.g. climate change, conservation and disaster risk reduction and preparedness). Considerable experience in topics of gender and women's empowerment, Indigenous peoples, education, organizational development, alternative finance and a variety of other topics related to rural and peri-urban development. Much of my translation and interpretation work covers crops and topics particular to Latin America (coffee, cacao, Latin American approaches to territorial development), while my editing work covers development-related topics from around the world (with several FAO divisions and offices being my primary clients for editing services).
I work in collaboration with a small, experienced team of translators/editors/interpreters and can provide translation, interpretation and editing services in English, Spanish and French.
