Overview

Duntext supported INSE with translation and editing of academic manuscripts and policy briefs. We produced clear, journal-ready English texts with terminology alignment, structured argumentation and coherent policy framing suitable for mixed expert and public audiences.

​

Problem

• Manuscripts targeted dual audiences: academic reviewers and policymakers.

• Polish source texts varied in structure and density; some required reframing for English-speaking readers.

• Strict reference expectations (APA/Chicago) and formatting inconsistency.

• Need for reliable PL→EN terminology alignment across multiple authors.

Approach

• Translated Polish manuscripts and briefs into natural, concise English.

• Reframed sections for clarity: reordered arguments, clarified causal links, highlighted core findings.

• Edited for academic style (conciseness, hedging, flow, transitions).

• Applied APA/Chicago referencing and formatting.

• Added an editor’s note summarising key decisions and terminology choices for transparency.

• Delivered via Track Changes for full visibility.

Outcome

• Manuscripts accepted for review with minimal author revisions.

• Policy briefs became clearer, more actionable, and easier for non-academics to engage with.

• Consistent terminology across multiple documents improved long-term usability.

• Faster editing cycles thanks to structured workflows and editor notes.
