About us

The Hungarian Association of Literary Translators (MEGY), a member of CEATL, the European Council of Literary Translators’ Associations, was founded in September 2003, and is the first professional organisation ever to represent literary translators in Hungary.

Our mission is to protect the interests of all professional translators in Hungary. We fight for fair conditions including just contract terms, and adequate remuneration.

Our philosophy is that literary translators should not only be heard and read but also seen.

Our activities include organising mentorship programs and educational courses, promoting translation as such, as well as informing about professional events and relevant innovations in the industry.
