Spanish term

de carácter asociativo (in this context)

Spanish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics
Hi,
I'm not quite convinced as to the meaning of "carácter asociativo" in this context, or how it really fits into the sentence considering what comes before and afterwards.


El consorcio del Instituto XXXX es una entidad de derecho público de carácter asociativo dotada de personalidad jurídica propia y sin ánimo de lucro que tiene como finalidad la proyección exterior de la lengua y de la cultura...

Thanks for any ideas.

Great, thanks... Looks like I couldn't see the wood for the trees in this one :)
Billh Dec 12, 2013:
Agree with Phil .
AllegroTrans Dec 11, 2013:
Suggestion "The Consorcio del Instituto XXXX is a nonprofit public-law association with its own legal personality....."
"Entity" is effectively redundant/obviopus
A bit of lateral thinking needed!
Rachael West (asker) Dec 11, 2013:
I think the main problem is that it's described as a consorcio, instituto, una entidad, and now, an association, in the space of about 12 words. Obviously I realize that the term is "association", my problem was more fitting it in to the sentence. Thanks Phil for the suggestion.

I suggest A nonprofit public-law association with its own legal personality
