Detailed Call Description
Selected projects will contribute to the following objectives:
- strengthening the transnational circulation and diversity of European literary works in particular by encouraging translations from lesser used languages into English, German, French, Spanish (Castilian) and Italian
- reaching new audiences for European literary works in the EU and beyond
- strengthening the competitiveness of the book sector by encouraging cooperation within the book value chain
In addition to the translation, promotion and distribution activities (import strategy), proposals can also include business-to-business “export” activities to help foster the sales of translation rights in Europe and beyond. The proposed activities should be grouped in coherent work packages (i.e. major sub-division of the project). Each work package must have a corresponding list of activities, deliverables, milestones and critical risks.
