Happy International Translation Day 2024

Happy International Translation Day, 30 September, 2024. 2024 Theme: "Translation, an Art Worth Protecting: Moral and Material Rights for Indigenous Languages". This theme implies that translation, as original creative works in their own right, has their own copyright protection under the Berne Convention.

As creators of derivative works, translators have fought to protect their moral rights to be credited for their translated work, to control any changes to that work, and to receive appropriate compensation. Protecting these simple things will ensure a sustainable future for translation professionals and the historic art of translation itself.

This 2024 theme calls on us to protect translation as an art, protect copyright and related rights, and protect our livelihoods, thereby ensuring the future and sustainability of our profession.
