Join interpreters from around the world to share ideas and experiences, and yes, even share a serving of poutine!
The joint NAI/IC International Conference on Interpretation is set for May 3-7, 2015 in the beautiful city of Montreal.
Participants from 30-70 countries come to this annual international conference.
Theme: Changing Boundaries, Changing Times
Day by day, technology and social networking become more
ingrained in our lives, in our careers, and in the way our sites
operate. For future generations, the borders of our organizations - like
our countries - will become ever more changeable, fluid, and perhaps
even insignificant. Join us in Montreal as we welcome interpreters from
throughout the world for a week of sharing experiences and learning new
skills, reports on recent research in interpretation and discussions of
the future of interpretation.

community. In 2015, we'll put our heads together to discuss the
development of international standards for the field of interpretation.
