International Translation Day 2023, Unveiling the Many Faces of Humanity: Translation and Interpretation in Indigenous Languages

The online event will be live-streamed on the IDIL 2022-2032 Facebook page and the Translation Commons YouTube channel. In addition to our main programme on 29 September 2023, a social media campaign will be active during the month of September 2023 to acknowledge the role of translators and interpreters working with Indigenous languages.

The Event  will provide the context of power dynamics in translation in indigenous languages and will shed light on the intricate dynamics within the translation process, particularly pronounced for Indigenous language communities.

The main theme of the event, Technology and Translation, will explore the intersection of cutting-edge technologies and translation practices focused on Indigenous languages. Technology is a necessity for people to be able to take an active part in society. In order to Unveil the Many Faces of Humanity, we must make the technology available to Indigenous communities, because in language lies identity, culture, tradition and community.
