Between the 18th and the 20th of March 2024, the 115 submissions received within the 2024 call for applications of the Translation and Publication Support (TPS) and Publishing Romania were reviewed and assessed. For an objective and transparent selection, the panel of experts was selected through a national call for applications. The panel was formed by Silvia Alexandra Ștefan (lecturer professor and translator), Eliza Claudia Filimon (associate professor and translator) and Angelo Nicolae Mitchievici (university professor dr. habil, literary critic and essayist).
The available budget, publicly communicated when the 2024 session was launched, amounts to 1.800.000 lei. To be eligible for a grant, an application (a publisher) must fulfill two cumulative conditions: to fit into the announced budget of the current session and to accumulate at least 60 points after being assessed by the panel of experts.
There were 111 applications for the Translation and Publication Support programme and 4 applications for the Publishing Romania programme. The first 59 applications for this call for the Translation and Publication programme and the first 3 applications for the Publishing Romania programme were granted financing, based on the scores resulting from the assessment of the evaluating panel.
The grants are provided on condition that the publishers agree to the terms of the contract to be concluded with the RCI. The period for signing the contracts between the Romanian Cultural Institute and the publishing houses which were granted a subsidy is April 1st - May 17th, 2024. If this deadline is exceeded, the sum that becomes available will be redistributed to the next eligible applications (the 17 applications that have obtained at least 60 points), according to the scores given by the panel. The publishing houses that will obtain a grant following this redistribution will be announced publicly, on the CENNAC website.
