I'm trying to translate a grant proposal for an NGO that installs clean water systems in rural areas, where I volunteer, and I'm confused by phrases with horizontal/horizontalidad.
The title for one section is: "Prioridades horizontales, prioridades sectoriales y estrategias de actuación en la ejucución de proyectos integrales de agua"
My translation guess: "Development priorities, sectoral priorities, action strategies for the execution integral water projects"
Another section (and I include more here to give context) is this:
Horizontalidad de la propuesta:
Contribuir de manera efectiva y real, al desarrollo integral de aquellas personas, hombres, mujeres, niños y niñas que por diferentes razones políticas, económicas y sociales aun no pueden lograr los beneficios de una política social de Estado o que, por razones ideológicas, étnicas y culturales han sido marginadas y excluidas de dichos procesos y que por lo tanto urgen y requieren del apoyo que les puede brindar el sector ONG’s.
My translation guess:
Breath of the Proposal:
To contribute, in an effective and real way, to the integral development of those persons—men, women, boys and girls—who, for different political, economic and social reasons, still cannot realize the benefits of the national social policies; who, for ideological, ethnic, and cultural reasons have been marginalized and excluded from such processes and who therefore urgently require the help that NGO’s can provide.
Can you please help me understand what "horizontalidad/horizontal" means in this sort of a context?
Thanks much, Bente
