Translations grants children's books


www.letterenfonds.nl

In the case of high quality illustrated children’s books, foreign publishers can apply for financial assistance to cover a proportion of the production costs. The amount granted is based on the direct production costs per copy. The maximum sum that may be awarded is € 2,800. Subsidies granted under this scheme are funded by the Mondriaan Foundation and the Dutch Foundation for Literature. If the translator has been approved by the foundation, a translation subsidy of max 70% of the total cost of translation can be granted.
