Supporting written translation and interpretation of projects contributing to the normalisation of Armenia-Turkey relations.

Hrant Dink Foundation is launching an open call for applications for its Translation Grant which aims to contribute to the normalisation of relations between the peoples of Turkey and Armenia by promoting the translation of written works as well as providing support for the interpretation of events and making them accessible to people in both Armenia and Turkey. Translation/interpretation of works/events into Armenian, Turkish or both will allow people in the two neighbouring countries to have access to a larger database of shared information from a variety of fields.

Hrant Dink Foundation will financially support at least 30 initiatives, including both written translation and interpretation, within the framework of this grant distributed as part of the EU-funded programme “Support to the Armenia-Turkey Normalisation Process- Phase III”.
