Translation Resources Seminar

Increasingly, the resources and skills needed for effective translation are becoming more sophisticated and diverse. To address the need for such resources and skills, the Nida Institute convened a seminar around three topics: audience, localization, and technology. The seminar determined that audiences are increasingly niche populations; that localization is a strategy for dismantling colonial-era ideologies and practices; and that technology will reduce development costs, speed products to market, increase functionality, and boost user friendliness.
