About the Summit

The Interpreting Forward 2030 Summit is happening February 22-24, with the Thursday evening welcome open to the public.

For the working days of the Summit, working group participants and key stakeholders will:

• review the data that has been collected so far
• develop criteria for ideal solutions to the problems identified
• generate and review proposed solutions to the problems
• provide for the evaluation of solutions proposed to date

About Interpreting Forward

Interpreting Forward 2030 is an important initiative, led by stakeholders, supported by the Commission, and facilitated by the Dendros Group. Its mission? To address a big obstacle - almost half of all working interpreters imagine working less, leaving, or retiring in the next few years. Additionally, fewer new interpreters are joining the field. We need to increase the quality and availability of professional interpreting services for our diverse and large community in Minnesota.
