The UK’s Ukraine Language Support Task Force
AIIC UK & Ireland Bureau
Together with other UK-based translation, interpreting and language service associations, AIIC UK & Ireland Region has set up a language support task force to respond to the rapidly developing need for Ukrainian into English language support in the UK. The task force consists of Charity Translators, the International Association of Conference Interpreters (AIIC UK & Ireland), the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL), the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI), the National Register for Public Service Interpreters (NRPSI), and the Association of Translation Companies (ATC). The task force will produce a set of Ukrainian- English templates for the most commonly needed documents for visa applications: birth and marriage certificates. Furthermore, the task force is opening up a direct channel of communication with the UK’s existing Ukrainian communities for the dissemination of information on language support.
