Press Release: EU translation contest winners receive their prizes

Twenty-seven students from EU secondary schools will each receive a prize and a diploma in Brussels on 3 April for producing the best translations in their respective countries in the 'Juvenes Translatores' (‘young translators’ in Latin) translation contest. The prizes will be presented by Leonard Orban, the European Commissioner for Multilingualism. The contest was organised in November 2008 by the European Commission to promote language learning and to give visibility to the profession of translator.
