AVTiA Project

The AVTiA project is funded, by the European Commission through the Romanian National Agency ANPCDEFP for the Erasmus+ Programme with the aim to:

• Develop new innovative content that provides lecturers in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) with knowledge and materials in the form of open online courseware (OPC) to teach and assess inclusion in audiovisual translation/subtitling for the deaf and hard of hearing, and audio description for the blind and partially sighted.
• Build and consolidate the required knowledge and skills of university students (including freelance translators) specializing in audiovisual translation through autonomous learning, preparing them for current labor market needs.
• Generate attitude change and raise awareness among HEIs and stakeholders regarding the disparity in the range of inclusion services provided in different EU member states and the obligation to ensure access to public information for people with disabilities within national legislation.
