Attend our workshop featuring panels addressing literary translation in/around conflict zones, solidarity-driven translation practices, translators as activists, representation and voice, and digital circulation and activist infrastructures.

Scholars, practitioners, and students interested in exploring literary translation as a form of activism and solidarity, both within conflict zones and through transnational acts of solidarity across borders are welcome.
