EU young translators' contest kicks off!

Secondary schools in all EU countries can now start enrolling for Juvenes Translatores, the European Commission's annual translation contest. This year, the topic of the texts that young students are asked to translate is ‘Let's get on track – towards a greener future.'

Participants can translate between any two of the EU's 24 official languages (552 possible language combinations). In last year's contest, students used 150 different combinations.

Registration for schools — the first part of the two-stage process — is open until 12.00 CET on 20 October 2021. Teachers can register in any of the EU's 24 official languages.
