Writers, readers, and researchers will come together for the annual Ale\u015b Adamovi\u010d Award Ceremony. The evening will celebrate outstanding works addressing pressing issues of our time and honor the 2026 laureate.<\/p>\n

Learn more about the workshop<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Established in 1995 by PEN Belarus and presented with the support of Nobel Prize-winning writer Sviatlana Alexievich, the award honours the memory of the distinguished Belarusian writer, public intellectual, and civic activist Ale\u015b Adamovi\u010d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The evening will offer an opportunity to learn more about the works on <\/span>this year\u2019s shortlist<\/span><\/a>, meet members of the Belarusian literary community, and witness the announcement of the 2026 laureate. This will be followed by a special discussion with the laureate, moderated by member of the PEN Belarus Board, playwright and actress Kasia Chekatouskaya.<\/span><\/p>\n

More than an award ceremony, the evening will be a space to reflect on the role of literature and public writing in confronting the defining questions of our time. As we approach the centenary of Ale\u015b Adamovi\u010d\u2019s birth in 2027, the award also invites us to return to his legacy: his attention to the voices of witnesses, his search for truth through lived experience, and his insistence that literature engage directly with the realities and moral challenges of its time.<\/span><\/p>\n

We warmly invite everyone interested in Belarusian literature, culture, and contemporary public discourse to join us in Berlin for the 2026 Ale\u015b Adamovi\u010d Award.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
