TRANSLATA V
INTERFACES IN TRANSLATION
5th International Conference on Translation and Interpreting Studies
Interfaces in Translation
Innsbruck | 19th–21st September 2024
Call for Workshops
TRANSLATA V is the fifth in a series of triennial conferences on Translation and Interpreting Studies at the University of Innsbruck. This conference series was established in 2011 and, from the outset, has always been one of the largest conferences on Translation and Interpreting Studies worldwide. TRANSLATA is a conference devoted to basic research in translatology with the principle aim of re-establishing translation proper (= professional translation and interpreting) as the core focus of Translation and Interpreting Studies.
The theme of TRANSLATA V is intended to reflect the interdisciplinary orientation of translation studies. Under the general theme of “Interfaces in Translation“, TRANSLATA V will provide a forum for all those working in translation in a theoretical, practical, didactic and commercial context to discuss current issues in translation and its links to other disciplines.
Workshops and abstracts
This year, TRANSLATA will take place in the format of a section conference. Interested parties can apply with their own thematic workshops until the 12th of April 2024. The application period for presentations for individual workshops and for the General Section is open between the 1st of April 2024 and the 30th of June 2024.

Interprofessional education in interpreting studies
Workshop languages: German, English, Spanish, Italian
With this workshop, we aim to contribute to giving visibility to such undocumented initiatives and to facilitate an exchange within the field of interpreting didactics. We are looking for contributions regarding IPE projects that deal with the following questions and aspects:
Which fields of study or training programmes are particularly interesting for IPE?
- What is the concrete added value of such cooperation?
- What methodological challenges arise for interpreting didactics?
- Which teaching concepts can be implemented? How can they be evaluated?
- What does the concrete cooperation in IPE (planning, implementation, follow-up and evaluation) look like? What are challenges for teachers and students?
- How does cooperation between students from different disciplines differ from cooperation between interpreting students and ‘fully trained’ experts?
Submission: We ask all interested colleagues to send their abstract in at least one of the workshop languages to the following e-mail address by 31 May 2024: katia.iacono@univie.ac.at
