Resumen

Durante las primeras oleadas de la pandemia del COVID-19 y los consiguientes confinamientos, la violencia de género (VG) ha recibido más atención en Austria. Esto, a su vez, ha acentuado el papel de los Centros de Protección contra la Violencia, subrayando la necesidad de facilitar el acceso a estos servicios, por medio de intérpretes. El desarrollo de la "pandemia en la sombra" en el ámbito de la VG nos ha impulsado a buscar situaciones más realistas que reflejen los actuales desarrollos tecnológicos y los problemas sociales para nuestras clases de interpretación. Por lo tanto, hemos desarrollado un concepto de juego de roles semiestructurado basado en los resultados de la investigación con el objetivo de preparar a los estudiantes para los desafíos técnicos, éticos y emocionales relacionados con la interpretación remota en contextos sensibles. Para validar la eficacia de nuestro concepto hemos recurrido a simulaciones de sesiones de asesoramiento mediadas por intérpretes y hemos realizado entrevistas con los estudiantes para reflexionar sobre los desafíos encontrados en la simulación.
