How can small acts transform the translation landscape? What does it take to map that landscape? And if translating is ‘writing in company’, then how do we nurture an interconnected community where new ideas and initiatives can take hold?
These are some of the questions that translators Daniel Hahn and Sarah Ardizzone will explore in their keynote conversation – focusing on specific examples and case-studies. They will then be joined by special guests: Bibi Bakare-Yusuf, who co-founded Cassava Republic to ‘change the way the world thinks about African writing’, and Layla Mohamed, assistant editor at Cassava. Bibi and Layla will share their experiences working on their first title in translation. There will be a short Q&A at the end.

Respeaking – taming the dragon!
This webinar provides an introduction to respeaking, a technique where a person uses speech recognition software to create subtitles in real-time. Traditionally, respeaking was intralingual – the subtitles were created in the same language as the one being spoken, and they captured what was said, and by whom, along with key sounds or music. In this way, they provided access for deaf, deafened and hard of hearing people as they watched television. More recently, respeaking has been used in new settings, for example to create subtitles at semi-scripted or unscripted live events such as conferences, lectures or tours, and it has also become an interlingual practice, where the respeaker works across languages as they create their subtitles.

Diversity and ‘diffability’ – inclusive approaches to translating children’s literature
Translating is never just about the words on the page, but how much more is there to think about when translating books for children and young people that explore disability, or ‘diffability’ – differently abled protagonists? Drawing on her experience of translating picture books about disability, Ruth will share examples of the creative role a translator can play in bridging the gap between the original book and its translation, sometimes adapted for a new audience.
September is World Kid Lit Month, and in the first of two children’s literature webinars, Ruth will showcase the wealth of resources for translators, including IBBY’s annual Collection for Young People with Disabilities. Ruth will also highlight some recent translations for older readers, and share tips on developing an awareness of inclusive, non-ableist language, and of inclusive editorial practices within children’s publishing.
