You are warmly invited to an engaging multidisciplinary one-day symposium, which aims to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners working in multilingual and multicultural contexts to exchange ideas on issues related to translation and migration. Speakers will address a diverse range of topics, approaches and methodologies related to the broad theme of translation and migration. Each of the presenters will speak on a specific aspect relating to their research expertise, including the challenges of multilingual emergency communication and fostering intercultural interactions between and within superdiverse communities. Their contributions will be followed by Q&A sessions with the audience. The discussion will highlight the value of interdisciplinary perspectives on diversity and inclusion to address critical societal issues like information accessibility, intersectionality, LGBTQI+ rights, racism and social cohesion. The event will also feature an insightful panel on transcultural creative practices, with practitioners and academics, and will conclude with a celebration of the publication edited by Brigid Maher, Loredana Polezzi, Rita Wilson, The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Migration (more information on the book here: https://www.routledge.com/The-Routledge-Handbook-of-Translation-and-Migration/Maher-Polezzi-Wilson/p/book/9781032254579?srsltid=AfmBOooWK0ehCjx0X5mcCcaTUhurMHHNmFyp9l5qWZ1nRIehw5DaN35G).
