As well as regular activities, Literature Across Frontiers initiates and manages large, longer-term projects carried out with groups of partners from our platform. Our most current project is Literary Europe Live (LEuL) which brings together sixteen festivals and venues to foster and encourage programming that reflects the richness and diversity of the European literary landscape. LEuL also highlights outstanding emerging literary talent and develops live and digital audiences for writing in translation.

LAF’s special projects may also focus on particular genres or regions, as in the case of Tramlines, the residency project which put short story writers onto trams in cities across Europe and Word Express, which promoted literary exchange for young writers from South East Europe.
