Project Overview

The Municipal Revenue Enhancement Project (MunRev) is a bilateral cooperation initiative between the Governments of Nepal and Switzerland, funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), with technical assistance from Swisscontact Nepal. The project supports municipalities in strengthening local revenue generation and public finance management.

Our Role

Square Services provided English–Nepali simultaneous interpretation during official engagements involving the Chargé d’Affaires of the Embassy of Switzerland, government officials and mayors of selected municipalities.

The Challenge & Our Solution

Setting up conventional interpretation booths inside government ministries can be difficult due to security and logistical restrictions.

To address this, Square Services deployed portable wireless interpretation equipment, allowing participants to listen to simultaneous interpretation through individual receivers without requiring a fixed booth installation.

This flexible arrangement enabled our interpreters to facilitate seamless communication between Swiss diplomatic representatives and Nepali government officials while accommodating the requirements of official government venues.

Outcome

The assignment demonstrated Square Services’ ability to deliver simultaneous interpretation for diplomatic and government engagements, combining experienced interpreters with practical equipment solutions for venues where conventional booth installations are not feasible.
