Expected Impact:
The action is expected to support around 40 projects, implemented either by a single entity (mono-beneficiary) or by a consortium of organisations (multi-beneficiary).
Each project will:
- promote the diversity of literature in the target country (or countries) by including works of fiction, with particular emphasis on those written in less widely translated languages;
- support the profession of literary translator and respect the principle of fair remuneration;
- propose the most effective distribution and promotion strategies, and the most appropriate book format, in order to ensure wide and easy access to European literary works and to contribute to the development of the readership of European literature;
- encourage collaboration between different actors of the book value chain: authors, translators, publishers, distributors, booksellers, libraries, literary events or festivals;
- contribute to the EU overarching priorities.
Objective:
This action supports projects that translate, publish, distribute, and promote European works of fiction.
