Voices heard and unheard
Hotel Giò Wine & Jazz Area, Perugia, Italy
15-17 October 2026
The annual Mediterranean Editors and Translators Meeting (METM) is an established CPD and networking event – a highlight in the calendar for many editors, translators, interpreters and other providers of English-language support services in the Mediterranean area and beyond. It offers one and a half days of presentations and keynote speeches (Sarah Ogilvie and Lawrence Venuti), two half days of pre-conference workshops, and a programme of “off-METM” fringe events.
The 2026 meeting will take place in Perugia, the capital of Umbria, known as the “green heart of Italy”. This medieval hilltop town with a rich Etruscan past is famous for its international festivals: Umbria Jazz, Eurochocolate and the International Journalism Festival. It’s also home to the famous Baci chocolates and some of Italy’s finest wines. Our venue, the Hotel Giò Wine & Jazz Area, located just outside the old town, is one of the main conference centres in central Italy.
