Who We Are

At Kabod Localisation Services (KLS), we cover over 100 African and global languages, enabling seamless multilingual communication for faith-based organizations, humanitarian agencies, and global businesses. Our ISO-certified services in translation, interpretation, and media localization are designed to bridge linguistic gaps and amplify African voices across borders.

From theological texts and humanitarian reports to educational platforms and media content, we specialize in delivering culturally accurate and context-sensitive language solutions. Whether it's simultaneous interpretation for a pan-African conference, voice-over for a multilingual documentary, or localization of EdTech platforms, our work ensures that language is never a barrier to impact.

KLS is more than a service provider — we are a movement committed to transforming Africa’s language industry. Since our founding in 2022, we’ve trained thousands of linguists, built strategic networks, and launched platforms that empower language professionals across the continent.
