Statement by H.E. Ahmad Saeed bin Meshar Al Muhairi, SLC
Secretary General, on International Translation Day 2025
29 September 2025 - International Translation Day is an occasion
to honour the vital role of translators in bridging cultures and
civilisations, and to reaffirm the importance of translation as a
powerful tool for fostering cooperation among nations. More than a
transfer of words from one language to another, translation conveys
ideas, values, and human experiences across a world rich in
linguistic and cultural diversity.
In the legal field, translation stands as a cornerstone to ensure
legislative consistency by standardising legal terminology,
conveying the intent of legislators, and reflecting the spirit of the
law. In doing so, it contributes to nurturing a culture of compliance, promoting awareness of rights and duties, and
facilitating alignment with global legislative developments.
On this occasion, the Supreme Legislation Committee in the Emirate of Dubai (SLC) extends its sincere appreciation and
congratulations to legal and legislative translation professionals, as well as translators everywhere who have ensured that
knowledge transcends linguistic barriers. Translators carrying out their mission with dedication and professionalism have
consistently played a pivotal role in preserving and transmitting human creativity and experiences in literature, thought,
science, and culture.
