In this talk, we will present some of the main policies of the People's Republic of China that guide the teaching of foreign languages ​​and the training of translators in China. The documents used as an example are laws, guidelines, national teaching standards and academic publications that relate directly and indirectly to the promotion of language policies for translation and multilingualism in China. Based on the recognition of the webs of relationships between the different operational levels of language planning, we will discuss whether and how these relationships can guide or build a common planning for the training of translators and interpreters in a post-pandemic context. To contextualize, under the perspective of the principle of the “One Country, Two Systems”, we will take as an example the success of the Macau Special Administrative Region in solving the challenges of translation in a multilingual society during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Finally yet importantly, we will open a debate on the actions that urge to systematize a common agenda for a macro planning for the training of professionals and researchers in Translation Studies and Language Policy in a post-pandemic world.
