Int’l Medical Interpreters Association & ATIF

"It is great for Florida.

I hope that the IMIA and ATIF can work side by side in a collaborative way so that each promote each other's work and IMIA can serve as a resource to ATIF members that specialize in medical interpreting just as ATIF can serve as a resource to IMIA Florida members that want to broaden their horizons. Our call will be for all our FL members to support and join the only state association ATIF and we hope that ATIF will encourage their medical interpreter members to join IMIA which is the only national trade association for medical interpreters."

Izabel Arocha, IMIA President, February 2010

Posted on January 6, 2012 by ATIF Florida

Lost for Words: Translating Culture – The Travel Word. New ways to communicate do not always stem from words; gestures and body languages vary remarkably from culture to culture as well, but are just as potent means of expression.
