[22MAI2006] How do I get to my hotel at Costa da Caparica? And, how do I get to the contrapor2006 venue? It's all here.

[17MAY2006] The Paper Instructions and Guidelines for the contrapor2006 proceedings are now available.

[16MAI2006] The reception of abstracts is now closed; however, we are still accepting communications in specific topics.

[16MAY2006] Student on a "student" budget"? The Almada Youth Hostel may well be a good solution for you not to miss contrapor2006!

[15MAY2006] New e-mail address for conference registration and registration payment:

It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 1st Portuguese Translation Conference – contrapor2006 – to be held in Lisbon (Monte de Caparica), Portugal, on 11 and 12 September 2006.

This event is organized by the ATeLP – Associação de Tradução em Língua Portuguesa in cooperation with the Department of Applied Social Sciences of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa and is being held under the auspices of FIT –  Europe.

Translation sustains countries’ development and progress and plays an increasingly influential role in today's world. In being called upon to counterpose human communication in all its different forms, it has long staked out its importance as a practice and a skill intersecting all branches of knowledge and professional experience.

Such characteristics are evident above all in specialised translation.

contrapor 2006 will provide an excellent opportunity for researchers, scholars, translators and clients purchasing translations to discuss the general theme: Specialised Translation: An Engine For Development.

The contrapor2006 conference will be held at the campus of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa (Building IV – Rooms 201 e 202)at Monte de Caparica, just a few kilometres south of Lisbon. The campus is well served by public transport.

Passport and Visas: A valid passport (or identity card for European Community nationals) is required. Visas are not necessary for citizens of European Union countries, the U.S.A., Canada and most major countries. Please contact your local Portuguese Embassy, Consulate or your Travel Agency for further information.

NOTE: The contrapor2006 Organising Committee DOES NOT and WILL NOT issue any invitation letters to any prospective participants. All participants must register and pay the conference fees in advance by bank transfer. In addition, all participants must be able to travel to Portugal by their own means and the Organising Committee of contrapor2006 DOES NOT and WILL NOT offer any assistance in the procurement of travel documentation, namely visas.
