Global Voices Program

Launched in 2026, the Peterson Literary Fund’s Global Voices Program supports special initiatives that advance the mission of our literary fund. This self-directed program collaborates primarily with trusted international funding partners and institutions.

Under the program’s framework, the Peterson Literary Fund acts as a proactive catalyst, identifying and supporting a wide array of initiatives that strengthen the publication and dissemination of printed books, eBooks, multimedia content, and analogous projects that focus on Ukraine-related topics. This includes support for:

writers, translators, and publishers
promotion and publicity efforts, such as events that raise public awareness of these works and themes
the distribution and broad dissemination of these publications

Where applicable, proposals are solicited by the Peterson Literary Fund following a process of exploratory research and internal deliberations. Through these efforts, the Global Voices Program aims to amplify diverse perspectives and ensure that Ukraine-related stories reach audiences around the world.
