We're delighted to invite our members to PELTA's traditional end-of-year holiday social on December 11 at 6pm (UK time) on Zoom!

Please RSVP to our PELTA Chair, and if you're not a member yet, you can still join in time to participate in the merriest of all celebrations!

(Slightly belated) happy International Translators Day to all our members and friends!

Yesterday the brilliant Julia Sanches gave her fellow PELTA members a fascinating & valuable insight into the intricacies of translation contract negotiation.

PELTA regularly offers such workshops to its members - if you're a translator working in Portuguese & aren't yet a member, why not join us?

Let us know if you have any questions, we'll be happy to help. And if you're already a member, help spread the word: tell us why you have joined and tag as many people as you like that you think would benefit from joining. Thanks!

PELTA is an independent, non-profit, global network run by translators, for translators. If you're not a member yet, and are curious about what PELTA can offer, check out 10 reasons to join!

In addition, we seek to actively promote links with Anglophone and Portuguese-language publishers and relevant cultural and literary organisations, and to encourage greater recognition and improved conditions for literary translators.

PELTA is a network of literary translators from Portuguese into English. Our main aims are to promote Portuguese-language literature in English translation and to represent the community of Portuguese-English literary translators, while at the same time maintaining a register of such translators.
