The World Health Organization Arabic Programme (WAP), a global programme hosted by the Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office (EMRO) since the 1980s, is concerned with presenting a clear and sound view of WHO and its efforts to promote health throughout the world. This is achieved through translating WHO basic documents, presenting WHO activities in Arabic, meeting the needs of countries for new and reliable information in all areas of health, developing scientific terminology, and institutionalizing health technology in the Arab countries. WAP has collaborated with the Arab Medical Union, the Arab Health Ministers Council, Arabic language academies and unions of health professions, as well as universities and health science teaching institutes. This paper details the role of WAP in promoting Arabic in the field of health.
世界卫生组织阿拉伯语项目(WAP)自20世纪80年代起由东地中海区域办事处(EMRO)主办,是一个全球性项目,致力于清晰、准确地展示世界卫生组织及其在全球促进健康方面所做的努力。这通过翻译世卫组织基本文件、以阿拉伯语介绍世卫组织活动、满足各国在所有卫生领域获取新的可靠信息的需求、制定科学术语以及在阿拉伯国家将卫生技术制度化来实现。WAP与阿拉伯医学联盟、阿拉伯卫生部长理事会、阿拉伯语学院和卫生专业联盟以及大学和卫生科学教学机构开展了合作。本文详细介绍了WAP在卫生领域推广阿拉伯语方面的作用。
