As part of the seminar series at the Department of English Translation and Interpreting, İzmir University of Economics (IUE) hosted Prof. Turgay Kurultay and Asst. Prof. Rana Kahraman Duru to give a speech about “Emergency and Disaster Interpreting”.
After the M7.7 and M7.6 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake Sequence in Türkiye on February 6, 2023, IUE Department of English Translation and Interpreting hosted Prof. Turgay Kurultay and Asst. Prof. Rana Kahraman Duru in the webinar “Emergency and Disaster Interpreting” organized on March 17, 2023.
The seminar, which Prof. Turgay Kurultay and Asst. Prof. Rana Kahraman Duru started by emphasizing the fact that Türkiye is an “earthquake country” and that we need to face the disaster's reality, attracted great attention. Along with the 1999 Marmara and Düzce earthquakes that led to devastating results in our country, the duties of Non-Governmental Organizations, activities of the Translation & Interpreting Association Turkey and volunteering as an interpreter were also among the focal points of discussion.
Kurultay and Kahraman Duru shared the starting story of Emergency and Disaster Interpreting efforts and elaborated on the requirements and training to become a disaster interpreter. They touched upon the difficulties and necessities encountered in the aftermath of the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes that affected Türkiye’s 10 provinces housing millions and grieved the entire nation, and answered the guests' questions afterwards.
