CELA unites 30 emerging writers, 79 emerging translators and 6 emerging literary professionals across 10 European countries and mentors them during a 4-year period. By building a growing network of literary artists across Europe through translating and promoting literary works in non-native languages, CELA aims to break through uneven literary infrastructures in different countries, and to open possibilities to reach European audiences beyond borders.CELA is co-funded by Creative Europe of the European Union and the Dutch Foundation for Literature.
