Charitable

was
founded in 1999. Its main objectives are:
- Promotion
and development
of scholarly research, education and culture in Ukraine;
- Substantive

assistance to Ukrainian book publishing; fostering renaissance of
national culture through publishing of Ukrainian translations of world
classics and works of contemporary writers from around the world;
- Substantive

publishing VSESVIT Journal - Ukrainian Review of World Literature,
support and collaboration with other NGOs and media that work in the

creative translation.
The
Foundation
carries out its charitable programs through financial and other (e.g.
organizational, expertise, consulting) activities and assistance, and
provides
financial support to certain translation programs carried out by legal
entities
and private authors.
As
stated in its

publishing of translations of Ukrainian works into foreign languages,
along

and
its culture, in Ukraine

A
number of
translation and publication projects were carried out during the years
1999-2003
in close collaboration with VSESVIT Publishing House. Many of them were
supported by International Renaissance Foundation (Soros
Foundation-Ukraine).
Among others, we published Ukrainian translations of the books of
Kafka,
Toffler, Hume, Webber, Tocqueville, Bloch, Fraser, Walicki, Shlipchenko
etc.
We
work in close
collaboration with VSESVIT literary review, VSESVIT Publishing House,
and
East-European Development Institute.
