D'fhógair Áras Scríbhneoirí na hÉireann go bhfuil siad ag iarraidh scríbhneoirí ó mhionlaigh a mhealladh i dtreo a gcuid cúrsaí, scríbhneoirí Gaeilge agus scríbhneoirí ó na sé chontae ach go háirithe.
Deir siad:
"These bursaries will enable writers to develop their skills through funded places at Irish Writers Centre creative writing courses, and open up access to course entry by subsidising costs to individuals who may not otherwise be able to take a course. "
Tá Áras na Scríbhneoirí i mbun oibre ar pholasaí comhionannais chun a chinntiú go bhfuil spás ann do chuile dhuine ó gach cúlra in Áras na Scríbhneoirí, rud a chuideoidh le litríocht na hÉireann i gcoitinne.
The IWC is working towards the development of our first equality and diversity policy, and taking steps to promote equality of opportunity for all those living in Ireland, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, civil or family status, religion, age, disability, race or membership of the Traveller Community, as well as socio-economic background.
Bursary recipients will receive course credit worth €165 towards a course at the IWC. We encourage writers from backgrounds typically underrepresented in Irish literature to apply. We particularly invite applications from BIPOC, Traveller, people with disabilities, and working class writers. We will place a strong focus on ethnicity, race, and socioeconomic status when evaluating the applications for bursaries.
