Parag, in partnership with Bahuroopi Publishers, are organizing ‘Bimba-Pratibimba’ : An Experiential Translations Workshop for translators from English to Kannada in Children’s Literature. This workshop is part of Parag’s efforts towards strengthening children’s literature in Indian languages. With limited contemporary children’s literature available and accessible in Kannada, good -quality translations can play a major role in bringing in a diversity of literature from other languages, regions and contexts, contributing to a print-rich environment and the joys of reading.
This will be a 3-day residential workshop in Bengaluru, followed by 6 weeks of distance mentoring.
More details about the workshop can be found in the brochures.
