highlights a number of key changes currently affecting
the interpreting and translation industry. It
also includes a case study of EITI’s work
with Central and North West London Mental Health

The General Assembly of
the United Nations proclaimed 21st May the World
Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development
in November 2001. According to the UN, "The
Day provides us with an opportunity to deepen
our understanding of the values of cultural diversity
and to learn to 'live together' better. UNESCO
continues to promote greater awareness of the
crucial relationship between culture and development
and the important role of information and communication
technologies in this relationship."
