Comment créer une présentation inclusive pour un public multilingue ?

To create an inclusive presentation for a multilingual audience, use visual aids like images and diagrams to convey key points universally. Provide translated materials or subtitles in relevant languages. Speak clearly and avoid jargon, using simple language that's easier to understand. Incorporate interactive elements like Q&A sessions or group discussions to encourage participation from all attendees. Additionally, consider hiring interpreters or providing live translation services for real-time language support. Ensure slides are uncluttered, with minimal text, to aid comprehension for non-native speakers. Finally, embrace cultural sensitivity by respecting diverse perspectives and customs throughout the presentation.

Yes, understanding your audience for every presentation is most important thing ever. Most presentations are best done with interactions here and there so finding ways of making your audience appreciate you, might just work out the best.

Weeks before the presentation do a background check on the possible audience and their languages as well as their academics status. Then you check for a common language spoken by 90% of them. Then that's the language you would use to communicate and if possible if there's another greater subdivision of the audience that speaks the same second language, try and learn the basic of that language and it can be used in interludes for them to have sense of belonging

1. Speak in the main language, write the slides in the secondary language, dependent on your audience. 2. Speak one language, but have the slides in both languages. 3. Don't speak in both languages- it slows things down too much, and is highly irritating for people who understand both languages.

Create an inclusive presentation for a multilingual audience by translating materials, providing visuals, and simplifying language. Speak clearly, use interactive elements, and offer live translation services or technology for subtitles. Be culturally sensitive, communicate language aspects in advance, and provide resources like glossaries. Test and rehearse to ensure a seamless experience. The goal is to make the content accessible, engaging, and respectful of diverse linguistic backgrounds, fostering better understanding and participation.

After you've known the Language(s) you're presenting with, then how would this presentation be impactful and everybody would be carried along is very important. Live presentation is always the best to me, because it give audience chance to ask questions and they can easily red the presenter's body language to understand the talk more.

The use of visuals make a distinct depiction of what the presentation is about as it provides avenue to see related visual representation of the concept or idea. It's drags the audience to the presentation and makes them for be more focus and attentive. Though videos might be distractive if it's too long.

To generate interaction and build trust I have found it useful to show a word in a language, attempt the pronunciation and then ask audience if it is correct. To suggest alternative words which might be suitable and to have fun learning with them. The audiences appreciated the attempt, wanted to support the speaker to learn. Also errors generated opportunity for humour.
