International Translation Day

International Translation Day, celebrated annually on September 30th.

It honors the work of translators and interpreters who bridge language barriers and facilitate global communication.

Established by the United Nations in 2017, it coincides with the feast of St. Jerome, the patron saint of translators, known for translating the Bible into Latin.

The day highlights the critical role of translation in diplomacy, cultural exchange, and access to knowledge, especially in multilingual contexts like the UN.
