Die steigende Zahl der Menschen in Berlin ohne bzw. mit geringen Deutschkenntnissen führt zu einem wachsenden Mehrbedarf an Dolmetschleistungen in der Stadt. Sprachliche Hilfe bei der Verständigung in zahlreichen Lebensbereichen wird nötig – ob auf dem Amt, bei Arzt/Ärztin, vor Gericht oder de...m Standesamt. Beim Dolmetschen im Gemeinwesen stehen demnach gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und Inklusion im Mittelpunkt. Da Geflüchtete überdies oftmals von gewaltvollen Erfahrungen in den Heimatländern oder auf der Flucht erzählen müssen, kommt den Dolmetscher*innen und anderen beteiligten Akteur*innen hier eine besondere Verantwortung im Umgang mit ihnen zu. Nicht selten werden in diesem Kontext die Grenzen zwischen der beruflichen und der persönlichen Position der Dolmetscher*innen überschritten.

The first step is to apply already-proven DRUM solutions, adapting them to new contexts. However, in many countries, even the best achievable DRUM performance will not be enough.

The “Beating the DRUM” conference offers a platform for countries and partners to dialogue and build joint strategy. While each country’s situation is unique, shared lines of action are emerging.
