Publisher Stephan Trudewind of Edition Orient on How the Translation-support System Should Be Restructured

July 26, 2021

I would wish for a restructuring of the translation grants system, a move away from supporting translations and more towards translation samples to help interested publishers make decisions. Also a move towards support for projects, not just translations, so children’s books and other genres become eligible for support, too.
