International conference: Minoritized languages in a French-speaking context: translating, transmitting, transforming

On 19 and 20 November, Sorbonne Université and Université Sorbonne Nouvelle will host an international conference in Paris titled “Langues minorisées en contexte francophone: traduire, transmettre, transformer” (Minoritized languages in a French-speaking context: translating, transmitting, transforming). The event is promoted by the Etxepare Basque Institute as part of the Ça colle au basque initiative.

Researchers and academics from different universities and countries will gather together to reflect on the challenges of translating, transmitting and institutionalising minoritized languages in the French-speaking world, with Basque as the starting point and inspiration.

Organised in collaboration with Sorbonne Université and Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, the conference will focus on linguistic diversity as a shared value and explore how culture and translation can create spaces for dialogue between different languages and identities.

The event is part of the Etxepare Basque Institute’s 15th anniversary celebrations and is part of Ça colle au basque, an initiative that aimed at boosting the presence of Basque language and creativity in French-speaking countries.
