Today, we would like to remind you of the Book Institute’s work to promote the presence of Polish literature and culture, as well as works important to Ukrainians themselves, in Ukraine. The Book Institute has been supporting translations into Ukrainian consistently since the inception of the ©Poland Translation Programme, i.e. since 1998. To date, the Institute has helped to publish more than 220 translations. In no other country has the Book Institute’s support for publishing been so great.
