Venue
Conference Room II, IIC main building

Panelists: Astri Ghosh, who translates from Norwegian, Hindi and other languages into English; Krupa Ge, who translates from Tamil to English; Rita Kothari who translates from Gujarati, Hindi, Urdu, Sindhi to English; and others

The discussion focuses on translation, and what happens when women translate women. The discussion brings together translators to speak about how and whether their gender impacts the process of translation, do they feel more drawn to the work of women, what is the ‘relationship’ between writer and translator when both occupy the same gender
