Translation Fund for Literature

International publishers may apply for a contribution towards the translation of works by living Australian authors of creative writing such as fiction, poetry, writing for children and young people, graphic novels, and narrative non-fiction (defined as autobiography, biography, essays, histories, literary criticism, or analytical prose).

Political memoirs, how-to guides and self-help, or new age books are not a priority for funding.

Most of the funding must be used to pay the rights holder and translator.

Australian publishers may also apply to support the translation of non-English language works to English, providing they are using an Australian translator.

Contributions of AUD $5,000 per successful applicant are available.
