[Deaf Arab] المؤتمر الدولي السابع لدعم الصم أون لاين

المؤتمر الدولي السابع لدعم الصم - أون لاين
٣ - ٦ فبراير ٢٠١٠ م

دعوة للمشاركة بأوراق عمل

Call for papers

For the forthcoming conference, we invite submissions for presentations under the following themes. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Deaf perspectives on interpreting and communication
  • Communication mismatch
  • Interpreting in specialist settings
  • Interpreting in emotionally stressful situations
  • Interpreters, fallout and vicarious trauma
  • Effective interpreting, politeness, face and culture
  • Open topic (papers in this theme will be selected on their merits and interest to the field).

Due to the international nature of the conference, audiences will come from different situations and professional backgrounds. We strongly encourage proposals which bridge these cultural differences and be understandable to delegates from any country. We welcome presentations in alternative formats (video, PowerPoint, etc.) and in sign language, provided these are made accessible through transcripts.

Please send your submission in the form of a proposed title, an abstract (approx. 200 words) and a short biography to judithm@directlearn.co.uk


Please note that this is a practitioner conference and presentations do not need to be overly academic. Far more important is that the content is useful and interesting to deaf people, interpreters and others working with deaf people. If you have ideas, please discuss them with us - we always like to try new ways of doing things!


Dates:


* Proposal submission deadline: October 15th, 2009
* Notification of acceptance or rejection: October 20th, 2009
* Presentations due: January 15th, 2010


All accepted presenters will receive a free conference place and a honorarium. CEUs are available for members of the RID from the USA and Canada.


مع تمنياتي للجميع بالتوفيق
