Residencies for literary translators and writers in Croatia

The Croatian Literary Translators Association organises residency stays in Zagreb for literary translators and writers. Foreign literary translators who translate Croatian literature and foreign writers can apply for the residency.

The aim of the residency is first and foremost working on a text. In addition, the residents will participate in panel discussions, workshops and masterclasses at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb, as well as participate at literary festivals. For the duration of their stay, residents will be accommodated in flats located in the centre of Zagreb and will receive a daily allowance of €20.

Applications can be submitted throughout the year (depending on available places) and residencies last between 1 and 4 weeks.

Applications including a biography, bibliography, cover letter together with the title of the book on which the candidate will work during the residency should be sent to: rezidencija@dhkp.hr

Candidates must have at least one publication to their credit.

Participants in the residency programme are selected by special invitation and open call. In both cases, decisions are made by the Programme Board of the Croatian Literary Translators Association and the project coordinator.

The project was funded by the Croatian Ministry of Culture and Media.
