Registration for the European Colloquium on Gender and Translation is now open
Registration is now open for the sixth edition of the European Colloquium on Gender and Translation. This international event has explored gender in translation and interpreting through an intersectional lens. Early bird registration available until April 30, 2025.
12/03/2025
Since 2016, the European Colloquium on Gender and Translation has been periodically offering an overview of the latest trends in translation and interpreting research and practice in its interaction with gender, with gatherings in Valencia, Naples, Valencia, Bergamo and Ferrara. By placing an emphasis on intersectionality, the 6th edition of this Colloquium in Barcelona proposes to overcome traditional approaches to gender as a monolithic entity, to embrace more nuanced understandings of gender as a multidimensional category that necessarily intersects with other layers of oppression and discrimination such as race, ethnicity, sexuality, (dis)ability, age, class or religion, to name a few. Our aim is to explore gender from a more thorough perspective that considers how racism, cis-hetero-sexism, classism, ableism, ageism, etc. are interconnected and cannot be examined separately from one another.
