Beijing: The Sheikh Hamad Award for Translation and International Understanding participated in the conference: "The Reality and Challenges of the Arabic-Chinese Translation Movement," hosted by Shanghai International Studies University (SISU).

The event was part of the award's delegation tour in the People's Republic of China from September 16 to 26, which included visits to both Beijing and Shanghai.

The Shanghai Translation Conference brought together a distinguished group of professors, researchers, and translators from both the Chinese and Arab worlds, aiming to strengthen cultural exchange and present a comprehensive vision of the current state and future prospects of translation between Arabic and Chinese.

At the opening of the conference, Director of the Institute of Translation Studies at Shanghai International Studies University Professor Wang Youyong emphasized that translation is a bridge of communication between peoples, not merely a transfer of words, but a means of conveying meanings and emotions and deepening mutual understanding.

He praised the pioneering role of the Sheikh Hamad Award for Translation and International Understanding in honoring translators and opening broader horizons for cultural cooperation.
