Meeting for members of ENLIT, the European Network for Literary Translation - in Barcelona

Members of ENLIT, the European Network for Literary Translation, are meeting – physically – in Barcelona, May 12-13.
On the agenda is the exchange of experiences and discussion of future plans, such as priorities, ways to stand with Ukraine and potential new members. In March, the Ukrainian Book Institute was welcomed as member of the network.

NORLA’s Director, Margit Walsø, is chair of the ENLIT board and she is happy to be meeting her colleagues in person, sharing best practices and developing ENLIT further.

After the meeting, the delegates look forward to taking part in the Barcelona Poetry Festival.
