Description or summary of the proposed project

The project partly aims to translate, publish, and distribute

authors in Jönköping County and other European areas, and

circulate literature from other countries into Sweden. The

project also aims to create long-term, stable collaborations for continued exchange in literature across Europe. By finding collaborations with publishers, distributors, literary festivals and others in Europe, new projects can be designed in the future. In this way, authors, publishers, and others become more independent of their geographical conditions. The region aims to create a larger and more varied range of literature within the European Union.
