Enlightened corporate governance and genuine democracy need to involve women
English to Spanish

International Org/Dev/Coop
Hello,
I am having trouble trying to properly translate the above sentence.
My first tought would be "Ilustrados gobiernos corporativos y democracias genuinas necesitan implicar a las mujeres..."
but "ilustrado" is a term that in Spanish referes more to an especific age (la Ilustración) and what is related to . Example: "el despotismo ilustrado".
So, I would go with "Esclarecidos gobiernos corporativos y democracias genuinas..."
Thoughts?
Thanks!

la gobernanza corporativa progresista/ilustrada y la verdadera democracia
"Governance" y "Government" son términos distintos en inglés. Hoy en día, en temas de desarrollo y cooperación internacional se utiliza el término español "gobernanza".
Por otro lado, "genuine" en este caso lo pondría como "verdadera", más que "genuina". Es más usual utilizar "democracia verdadera" o "verdadera democracia" en castellano que "democracia genuina".

Perdón, se me olvidó el resto "necesitan involucrar a las mujeres" (en eso estamos todos de acuerdo)

Comment: "Sé que "governance" y " Government" son conceptos diferentes. No sabía que se estaba usando governanza. Not too fancy about "democracia verdadera" though. Gracias."

Los gobiernos corporativos progresistas y las democracias genuinas necesitan incoporar a las mujeres
Ilustrados se refiere a tener educación, conocimientos, también es inteligente, comprensivo e iluminado.

: No, Krimy yo no te di mi "agree" por un "concepto" político sino porque el Oxford así lo traduce.

El gobierno corporativo instruido y la democracia genuina necesitan involucrar a las mujeres
I think the sentence is talking about political governance, and "gobierno corporativo" works perfectly well in Spanish.
The term enlightened would be "ilustrado" and in my opinion doesn't sound bad at all, and it doesn't only refer to "La ilustracion" which I think in English is Enlightenment. But if you don't feel comfortable with that term you can also say "instruido": el gobierno corporativo instruido.

One more thing, I don't think it refers to "gobiernos" as subjects, if it was so it would say "governments" and it says "governance". That's why I believe Gobierno (as a type of political figure) refelect the concept in a better way.
