European Conference on Literary Translation

3 – 4 Oct 2024

In celebration of the UNESCO World Book Capital programme, CEATL (European Council of Literary Translators’ Associations) is hosting the European Conference on Literary Translation in this Year’s World Book Capital, Strasbourg.

The event will showcase all aspects of literary translation: translators, writers, publishers, booksellers, librarians, book festivals and fairs, and organisations supporting literary translation in Europe.

Hosted by the European Parliament in Strasbourg, the conference sessions will discuss challenges facing the sector, including accessibility and diversity, artificial intelligence, freedom of speech, cooperation and best practice, among other topics.  

Plenary sessions will be livestreamed in French, English and German, and the videos will then be posted on the CEATL website.
