Pick It Up, Pass It On

This year’s theme is simple — but meaningful.

Pick It Up, Pass It On is all about connection. It’s not just about passing on information — it’s about sharing experience, supporting each other, and building something stronger together.

In our fast-moving, people-focused profession, we each carry tools, ideas and lessons that could really help someone else — whether that’s a strategy that worked in a tough moment, a mindset shift that changed your approach, or a hard-earned lesson you wish someone had shared with you.

This year, we’re focusing on what it means to share generously — and to stay open to learning in return.

You’ll hear from interpreters and translators across career stages and contexts, exploring how we can:

Recognise experience without reinforcing hierarchy
Challenge the idea that expertise only flows one way
Share what works (and what doesn’t) to build confidence and connection
Link real-world practice with research, training and lived experience
Support each other through mentoring, collaboration and honest conversations
Create space for learners, early-career professionals, and those returning to the field
Learn from international colleagues and widen our perspectives

Whether you’ve been in the profession for three months or thirty years, this is a call to contribute — and to connect.

Pick it up — and pass it on!

We’ve put together a list of FAQs on our website to help with common questions. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, feel free to get in touch – we’re always happy to help.
