I would like to express my sincere thanks to the members of Indian Translators

Association as well as Linguaindia team for having devoted their precious time in

preparing this special report that covers the four days activities of international

conference on Role of Translation in Nation Building, Nationalism and Supra-

Nationalism”hostedbyInstituto Cervantes, NewDelhi (December16-19,2010).

I takethis opportunity toemphasize that translatorshave alwaysplayeda pivotal role in

social and cultural change in society and they continue to play a major role in

disseminationof theeverexpandingknowledgeand information.

Until the eighties, scholars and translators were more focused on the translation of

literature and administrative texts which were mainly aimed at national and regional

consumers. Ever since the communication explosion of the nineties, the demand for

translation andlanguagerelatedservices has increasedexponentially. Translation is not

only neededfor thecreation ofnational identitybut has also becomean essential tool for

keepingpace withthe globalizationand localizationprocesses.

In a rapidly changing world, the demands on the translator are also changing.

Translators can no longer rest on their laurels but, like any other service provider, must

continuously upgrade themselves by coming to terms with an ever developing

technology (including IT resources such as CAT tools) and adapting to increasingly

stringent professional demands involving good commercial practice and the

implementation of qualitystandards.

During the conference, after extensive debate, deliberations and discussions thetranslators community, academicians, translation agencies as well as corporate

representatives reached at the consensus that there is an urgent need to regularize

translation and provide professional status to translators and develop quality standards

totapthe immenseopportunitiesthat havebeen createdon accountof globalization.

Also, if India wants to retain and maintain leadership role as exporter of services

involving IT, communication andContent, thegovernmentas well as private sectormust

take measures to develop Machine Tools and alike technology to empower language

professionals in Indian as well as foreign languages that would further fuel growth in IT

andCommunicationIndustry of India.

Through this reportI would like tomake anappealto thestake holders of thetranslationindustry to come forward andtake stepsto accordprofessionalstatus to translators and

formulate quality standards in translation so that this unorganized sector delivers the

best.

I sincerelyhopethatthisspecialreport wouldbeuseful forreaders.

Director, Instituto Cervantes welcomedthe gatheringand

highly appreciated the efforts of Indian Translation

Association for creating awareness about translation

activities at national as well as international levels.

Duringhis address, he depicted thepicture of newIndiain present globalized world and the opportunities of

translation and cooperation available with Hispanic

world. He expressed hishappiness overtheinvolvementof

Instituto Cervantes in theevent andhoped that, in future,

such events will be organized more frequently. He also

emphasized on the benefits of learning Spanish language

that help in increasing prospects of employability at

global front. He also said, “learning a language is like

discovering a continent”. “The Hispanic continent is

populated by more than 450 million and it is full of

Prof. Ravi Kumar, Founder President of Indian Translators

Associationand Convenorof the Conferenceextendedwarm

welcome to the gathering and explained how translators

have always played a pivotal role in social and cultural

change in society andhow they continue toplay a major role

in dissemination of the ever expanding knowledge and

information available today. He explained that during this

globalized world the demand for translation and language

related services has increased many times and that

translation is not only needed for the creation of national

identity but it has also become an essential tool for keeping

pace with the processes of globalization and localization. He

also explained how most observers take for granted the

translator's crucial role at the (intra) national level but are

less aware of their equally pivotal place as mediators at the

international level and, potentially, in the creation of the

even larger and comprehensive global supra national

identities which seem destined to follow in the future. In a rapidly changing world, the demands on the translator are also

changing. Translators can no longer rest on their laurels but, like any other service provider, must continuously upgrade

themselves by comingto termswith anever developingtechnology(including IT resourcessuch as CAT tools)andadapting

to increasingly stringent professional demands involving good commercial practice and the implementation of quality

standards.
