Grants for translators of Swedish literature
In the first application round of this year, 30 projects were approved.
Among the granted applications, we approved travel grants for events such as the Littfest Book Fair in Umeå and the Bologna Children’s Book Fair. Additionally, we granted funding for work-related travel to institutions like the Baltic Centre for Writers and Translators in Visby.
Furthermore, we provided support for residence stay in Stockholm and attendance at translation seminars in Skopelos, Greece and Västmanland. We also allocated funds for six sample translations, featuring works by Mattias Andersson, Anja Gatu and Anna Nilsson, Elin Hägg, Elin Levén, Clara Törnvall, and Andrev Walden.
