PEN Translates Award

The PEN Translates Award is a grant designed to support publishers and translators in bringing recently published international literature into English. It provides financial assistance to help translate important works, making diverse voices and stories accessible to a wider audience. The goal is to promote cultural exchange, foster literary diversity, and elevate translated works within the global literary landscape. By supporting translation projects, the award encourages the dissemination of important literary and cultural content that might otherwise remain limited to their original language and region.
