Description
The U.S. Embassy in Georgia is soliciting proposals for the Book Translation Program, aiming to increase accessibility and affordability of American authors' works in Georgian. The program focuses on themes such as Public Policy, Media, Rule of Law, Basic Education, Economics, and Literature. The grant requires a 50% cost-share, and the U.S. Embassy will cover only 50% of the total project budget. The program has a maximum project period of 2 years, and the Embassy anticipates awarding 15 grants.
Key points to consider:
• The program requires a minimum print-run of 1,000 copies.
• Textbooks and academic literature should be the latest editions.
• The grant recipient is responsible for requesting permission from the copyright holder.
• Each applicant can submit up to five proposals per call.
• Eligible works should be previously unpublished in Georgian.
• Publications should be translated from the original language.
• Post-publication book promoting activities are required.
