Writers' Union of Russia

The Writers' Union of Russia is a professional organization that brings together Russian writers to support their work, promote literary culture, and advocate for writers' rights. Founded in 1934, it provides its members with resources, networking opportunities, and a platform for publication. The union also plays a role in preserving and promoting Russian literature, maintaining standards for writing, and representing writers' interests to government and society. While it historically aligned with state institutions, it remains a significant institution in Russia's literary landscape.
