Join us to celebrate translators – International translation day on 30 September

Translators are unsung heroes, uniting people across the world by helping them understand each other across cultures and nations. Translators transform words into understanding. Translation is much more than shifting words mechanically from one language to another. Translation requires skill and expertise. Whether it is about translating laws and regulations, medical texts or literature, translators are there to make sure the message gets conveyed correctly.
