European Conference on Literary Translation

European Conference on Literary Translation

The European Conference on Literary Translation is an initiative of CEATL (European Council of Literary Translators’ Associations) as part of the UNESCO World Book Capital programme in Strasbourg. It will bring together all parties involved in literary translation: writers, translators, publishers, booksellers, librarians, training establishments, residencies, book festivals and fairs, and all the organisations supporting literary translation in Europe. The working sessions, to be hosted by the European Parliament in Strasbourg, will be an unprecedented opportunity to discuss best practices and the challenges facing the sector (linguistic and editorial diversity, artificial intelligence, freedom of speech, etc.). The EWC is member of the Steering Committee for the programme and takes part on two panels with the EWC Board Members Dr. Paula Havaste and Monika Pfundmeier.
