Celebrating the International Translation Day!

Serena BaroneEvents, FIT, Translators' Rights

Each year, translators, interpreters and terminologists celebrate International Translation Day (ITD) on 30 September, the feast day of Saint Jerome who translated the Bible into Latin.

To commemorate the theme of International Translation Day 2023, which is “unveiling the many faces of humanity”, the Federation of International Translator (FIT) Council is delighted to present their ITD Poster for 2023. This year’s design pays tribute to the many human faces and stories made visible through translation.

This year, FIT wants to celebrate the crucial role that translation plays in our lives and celebrate the shared humanity in recognition of International Translation Day.

Translation plays a crucial role in preserving cultural diversity and promoting cross-cultural understanding. Translators helps to create a more interconnected and diverse world by making literature, art, music, and other cultural works available to people who speak different languages.
