Reimagining Language Justice Through the Art of Translation
Led by Cristina Viti with Dr Rosa Mucignat and Professor Sanja Perovic, this project responded to the erasure of minoritised languages and the constraints of institutional language by bringing together poets, translators, publishers and activists to explore how language shapes power, identity and resistance. Rooted in the idea of "activist translation," the programme addressed different language injustices – from marginalised UK languages like Cornish, Gaelic, Welsh, Scots and BSL, to the experience of navigating migration and bureaucracy.
