May 2 - 6, 2016
Welcome to the Nida School of Bible Translation!
NSBT 2016 marks the fourth iteration of this new training initiative designed to help translators and consultants prepare to carry forward the multi-faceted work of Bible translation in diverse settings marked by social and religious complexity.
Our key themes for this year are:
- Translation as Communication
- Translation as Culture
- Translation as Creation
The school will balance theoretical and practical elements, with group work and presentations playing an important part of the training experience. It will also include training in ParaTExt and other web-based tools for advancing the work of Bible translation.
The Nida School of Bible Translation employs a hybrid approach to education where both face-to-face and distance elements are combined for the most effective training experience. Conversations will begin around discussion questions before the group meets in Misano, and will continue after we have come together for the seminar. As the month of May draws nearer, this site will become a hub of activity and communication. Please be sure to check back often for the latest updates and information.
We look forward to welcoming you in person when you arrive on the beautiful Italian Adriatic seacoast in May! In the meantime, the links below will provide you with further information about travel to and from Misano, as well as about various aspects of the school itself.
Best wishes as you prepare for NSBT 2016!
