Panel 17: “The social role of language: Translation into easy and plain languages”

Silvia Hansen-Schirra and Christiane Maaß will be hosting a thematic panel at the 7th Conference by the International Association for Translation and Intercultural Studies (IATIS) 2021 in Barcelona. The conference will be held both on site in Barcelona and remotely.

In this panel we want to bring together researchers, practitioners, and ideally users dealing with Easy and Plain Languages in all sorts of languages, text types, situational contexts and language modes. One goal is to bootstrap a new, multidisciplinary community around this topic and to stimulate exchange and cooperation.
