Berliner Literarische Aktion

Multilingual events and the support of the two-way publication of translations encourage international cultural exchange in which theater, visual arts and music also play a role besides literature.

Online literary Magazine Stadtsprachen, freely accessible to everyone, introduces and publishes Berlin's current multilingual contemporary literature.

[3] The program "Literature behind bars",[4] which was initially developed only for prisons in Berlin and brings international authors in contact with detainees, also attracted interest and found imitators all over Europe.

As a result, the Berliner Literarische Aktion participated in research projects of the European Union on cultural education in prisons.

[5] In order to stimulate global literary exchange, the Berliner Literarische Aktion designs and implements international, explicitly non-commercial types of events every year (including Italy, Indonesia, Switzerland, France, Poland, Great Britain, Brazil, Chile, Russia).
