In this uncertain moment, we at WWB value our mission more than ever. You can see how we’re achieving that vision, and connecting the world through boundary-crossing literature, in our new Impact Update. A quick preview of what’s inside: WWB was recognized through prizes in the US and Germany, and our contributors won awards from the Nobel to the Booker. We offered training to 600+ educators through WWB Campus, published work from 46 countries, and supported early-career translators through the Momentum Grant.

关于我们
Words Without Borders is the premier destination for a global literary conversation. Founded in 2003, our mission is to cultivate global awareness by expanding access to international writing and creating a bridge between readers, writers, and translators. Our digital magazine offers unparalleled access to the world’s literary voices. These include writers like Elena Ferrante, Olga Tokarczuk, and Han Kang, all published on WWB before they became international sensations, as well as hundreds of new and rising talents. We are committed to centering writers in indigenous, endangered, and other world languages that are too often marginalized. Our education program, WWB Campus, brings global literature into hundreds of classrooms, offering free access to stories from around the world; multimedia curricular resources that bring literature to life; and professional support for educators. Each year, WWB organizes free virtual and in-person events with international authors, translators, and critics, providing a space for readers to engage directly with the perspectives we publish.
