The Translation Bureau is proud to present the Pan-African Glossary on Parliamentary Procedures, which will help promote and disseminate the use of cross-border languages spoken today by more than half of the people of Africa.

The Glossary contains 100 entries in each of the following languages: French, Creole, Fulfulde, Lingala, Mandingo, Swahili and English. It has been tailored by national teams of the five partner countries of the program entitled Coopération technolinguistique – Afrique : développement des langues partenaires africaines et créoles (CTA Program). This glossary is part of the Pan-African Glossary series the Translation Bureau launched a few years ago.
