Second edition of young translators' contest

Brussels, 14/05/2008 (Agence Europe) - On Thursday 8 May, the European Commission launched the second edition of the “Juvenes Translatores” (young translators) contest. Encouraged by the enthusiasm aroused by the first contest, in 2007-2008, and the positive feedback from participants, it decided to organise the contest again. All EU schools will be invited to register between 1 September and 20 October 2008 for a contest to be held on 27 November 2008.
