Since the last Intercultural Conference, which took place in 2019, many changes have occurred in our society. The group of people who need interpretation in their daily lives has grown. What is the situation today? What are we doing well, and what can be better? Birna Imsland, will go over urgent matters in the field of community interpretation and address the vision for the profession’s future.

The seminar is for interpreters and professionals who use their services, but all are welcome.

Birna Imsland is, among other things, a community interpretation teacher at the University of Iceland and various education centres. She is a text interpreter, a conference interpreter, and a former sign language interpreter. Birna has a master’s degree in conference interpreting.

The seminar will occur from 11:30-12:15 and will be in Icelandic.
