Happy International Translation Day, a celebration established by the United Nations in 2017, occurring on 30 September every year.
International Translation Day is an opportunity to pay tribute to the work of language professionals, which plays an important role in bringing nations together, facilitating dialogue, understanding and cooperation, contributing to development, and strengthening world peace and security. A number of organizations are planning events, as described in a prior post.
“Words travel worlds. Translators do the driving”. – Anna Rusconi
This is an appropriate occasion on which to thank all of the translators who have taken time from other responsibilities to help CID prepare translations of our publications into a remarkable 32 different languages. We could not do this without you!
NOTE: If you want to translate one of the publications into a language in which you are fluent, please contact us before you start, to learn whether anyone else is already working on that publication in that language.
