The research group Translation, Interpreting and Intercultural Studies (TrICS) of the University of Antwerp organises a one-day symposium on 29 April 2016 on the accessibility of live events. Accessibility is rapidly becoming standard and an integral part of many live events today. Unlimited! would like to pay tribute to this development and draw a map of the current state of play, focusing on audio description, including audio-surtitling and audio-subtitling, surtitling for the hearing impaired, and sign language. For the full programme please see Unlimited!

A provisional programme for the 28th CETRA Research Summer School (22 Aug – 2 Sep 2016 at KU Leuven, campus Antwerp) is now available at http://www.arts.kuleuven.be/cetra/programme. Since 1989, the CETRA Summer School in Translation and Interpreting Studies offers a unique setting for PhD students, postdocs and young scholars who spend two weeks of research under the supervision of a team of prominent scholars in Translation Studies. This year’s CETRA Chair Professor is Jeremy Munday (University of Leeds).

Applications for the Summer School are possible until April 8th. Please find all information about the application procedure at http://www.arts.kuleuven.be/cetra/application.
