Sign and spoken language interpreters meet at the European Parliament in Strasbourg

At the EYE event in Strasbourg on 20 May 2016 a special meeting was organized by the interpreting recruiting and programming department of the European Parliament. At the meeting Maya de Wit & Oliver Pouliot presented a glimpse into the world of sign language interpreting to the spoken language interpreters working at the event. It was a unique opportunity to discuss many questions and answers and it gained more insights into each others work.
