Completely online in the format do it when you can, it includes “duty duty” via Google Meet on Thursdays from 8:00 pm to 8:30 pm (June 9th to August 4th). Videos, readings and activities, equivalent to 3 hours per week, will be posted every Monday from June 6th to July 25th. All material will be available for one year for consultation, study and improvement of participants.
The idea is to prepare translators to work with documents involving human rights. Both experienced professionals and people wishing to enter the world of interpreting and translation are welcome.
The workshops are guided by linguistics, law and the social sciences, and mix theoretical knowledge with practice. The activities carried out will be multiple choice discursive exercises e , in addition to short translations of up to 500 words from a foreign language into Portuguese. The texts chosen for translation will be texts of wide international circulation with versions in different languages so that speakers of Portuguese and any second language can participate. The creation of glossaries will also be a constant practice in the Workshop.
The cost of the workshop is R$110.00.
All exercises will be corrected, evaluated and discussed privately via email.
