The International Association of Professional Translators and Interpreters (IAPTI[1]), an NPO, is a translators and interpreters association.

Organization

Based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, IAPTI was established on 30 September, 2009, Saint Jerome's day.[2] Created by a group of professional language mediators as a vehicle for promoting ethical practices in translation and interpretation[3] and providing a forum for discussing problems typical of the globalized world, such as crowdsourcing, outsourcing, bad rates and other abuse.[4]

IAPTI applied for registration as a civil association in the City of Buenos Aires (Argentina), the legal registration of which is currently pending with the Office of the Argentine Inspector-General for Justice.[5] According to its bylaws, the Association is directed and managed by a Board of Directors made up of the six following officers: President, Vice President, Secretary General, Treasurer, two Voting Members and two Alternate Voting Members.[6]

In 2012, IAPTI was accepted by FIT as an observer member.[7]
