Directorate-General for Interpretation

The Directorate-General for Interpretation (also known as DG Interpretation and SCIC for its former
French name Service Commun Interprétation-Conférences) is a Directorate-General of the European
Commission. It is the European Commission's interpreting service and conference organiser and provides
interpreters for around 11,000 meetings every year, thus being the largest interpreting service in the world.

DG Interpretation manages the allocation of Commission meeting rooms and provides support for the
smooth running of meetings in many languages that are held there. It also organises conferences for
Directorates-General and departments of the Commission, typically in the range of over 40 main events per
year.

In 2016, Florika Fink-Hooijer became the Director-General of DG Interpretation. In 2020, Genoveva Ruiz
Calavera took over the role after Fink-Hooijer stepped down.[1]
