Volunteer Service Award
UXPA International Winners
UXPA International is an organization run by volunteers who dedicate minutes, hours, and days to bring resources and spread the word about the wonderful world of user experience. Since our organization is world-wide, we aim to boost that focus on internationalization through our members and task-forces. As such, many of our volunteers come from locations around the globe.
One of our very special groups of international volunteers is the UXPA Magazine Translations team, a group of more than 20 people who have served since 2010 as translation reviewers for the Korean, Chinese, Japanese,Portuguese, and Spanish abstracts, excerpts, and even some of the full articles of our magazine.
