Summary

PAC LA, based in Lima, Peru, and part of Practical Action, works to reduce poverty through technology, good practices, and change. As an international NGO, Practical Action improves lives in developing countries by enhancing local skills and knowledge for sustainable solutions. After attempting single-language events with interpretation, PAC LA saw the need for a multilingual platform with multiple audio channels for precise and accurate simultaneous interpretation.

The Challenge

With a worldwide reach, PAC LA found that to engage all participants fully, they needed webinars in multiple languages. Their first try at using simultaneous interpretation mixed English and Spanish in one audio channel, confusing listeners. They learned they needed a multilingual event platform that offers separate audio channels for different languages in the same webinar.

The Solution

The Boostlingo Events platform allowed PAC LA to share content in multiple languages simultaneously, increasing audience interaction across different countries. Its easy-to-use interface supported them in over 20 multilingual webinars, helping PAC LA influence public policy, program designs, development projects, and spark new research. Offering webinars in several languages led to a 40% rise in audience engagement.

"Boostlingo Events allowed Practical Action Consulting Latin America to serve a wider audience by creating a space for interaction between English and Spanish speakers from countries around the globe. -Jacqueline Gotuzzo Project Administrator at PAC LA "
