Upcoming Webinar: Interpreting for Victims of Crime
Vital Language Solutions LLC just opened registration for its upcoming webinar on Interpreting for Victims of Crime: An Understanding of Victims’ Characteristics, Parties Involved, and the Effects on the Interpreters’ Role and Experience that will take place on Wednesday, October 4th, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. Central Time and greatly welcomes translators, interpreters and other special guests to join us! This event has been approved for 1.00 General CIE credit hour by the Supreme Court of Ohio.
Our featured presenter for this webinar will be Dr. Rita Pavone, the founder of Minerva Translations & Language Services and OnPoint Research and Consulting. Dr. Pavone has been an interpreter and translator for more than 20 years serving in a variety of sectors and working with multiple language pairs.
The webinar will provide an overview of sensitive topics such as victimization and re-victimization, victim precipitation, maladaptive coping and the challenging rapport-building and balance of power among the participating parties. Furthermore, some attention will be devoted to the interpreter’s temptation to embrace an advocacy call and the phenomenon of emotional dissonance, which may lead to depersonalization and burnout. Please see the enclosed flyer for more information about the webinar.
