The purpose of this subsidy is to facilitate publication abroad of high quality illustrated books for children, specifically picture books, originally published by a Dutch or Frisian publishing house, where both the text and the illustrations are of an exceptional quality.
Foreign publishers wishing to publish translations of Dutch or Frisian literature, including children’s literature, quality non-fiction and poetry, may apply for a subsidy towards the translation costs.
Subsidies are now available from The Foundation for the Production and Translation of Dutch Literature (NLPVF) for Dutch authors who are being presented in international literary events and projects.
