Translators and interpreters in Ukraine have been discussing the need for an active organization to bring together translation professionals and students of translation, so we invite everyone to join the Ukrainian Associations of Translators and Interpreters! We have founded the Association with a firm intent to make it authoritative, influential, and durable – one that we all can be proud of.

Our core goal is to support and protect Association members in many professional matters, enhance the prestige of our profession, raise awareness of it among the general public, contribute to the professional development of translators and interpreters, and offer a platform for the exchange of experience and information, and engage in international cooperation with translator/interpreter and other organizations from different countries of the world.

We are supported by the International Federation of Translators (FIT — Fédération Internationale des Traducteurs / International Federation of Translators). The UATI’s first step internationally will be the collective FIT membership for all its full members. It will offer new professional development opportunities for all of us.

We call everyone to join the Association, where the General Meeting of UATI Members is the highest managing body and solves all the key issues. We also aim to cooperate with interested professionals in all sectors from all regions of Ukraine and the whole world.
