Festival of Chinese Translation – Funding Available

festival

Our friends at the Confucius Institute of the University of Aberdeen are hosting a wonderful programme of online lectures and workshops, from the 7th of June to the 3rd of July, focusing on Chinese literary translation. 

With such an exciting programme on offer, we are offering full funding for two aspiring translators to participate completely free of charge.


Run in conjunction with Paper Republic, this festival covers a wide range of topics led by a host of established translators. Lectures are free (with registration via Eventbrite) and there are limited spaces available on a range of interactive workshops.

Workshops are £30 each (£20 for students), with a discount available for those who sign up for all six (£150/£99).

The Confucius Institute for Scotland are delighted to be able to offer full funding to assist budding translators to participate. If you are a full-time student, enrolled at any university in Scotland, you can apply!
