April Hybrid Lecture – A new ISL glossary of parliamentary terminology.

CDS are thrilled to welcome Caroline O’Leary and Ciara Gran who will present on the development of a new ISL glossary of parliamentary terminology.

In 2020, the newly recruited ISL interpreter team in the Houses of the Oireachtas found themselves interpreting fast-paced political dialogue with complicated jargon. They quickly realised new coping strategies were needed. Aware of ISL glossary projects developed in collaboration with Deaf teaching professionals in Ireland they decided to explore if the same could be done for political terminology.

Join us on Thursday April 4th – in person or online – from 5 to 6 pm.

Presentation in ISL and English. Counts to CPD for RISLI.
