We’re thrilled to announce a series of four creative, exploratory online writing and translation workshops led and curated by Wasafiri’s Translator in Residence (Endangered Languages), Juana Adcock. Building on short, pre-recorded audio and video of the authors reading their work, as well as translated reading material, participants will explore some of the issues at stake when bringing works from Indigenous languages into English. These workshops will run monthly from June to September 2026.

What shapes can solidarities take in these times we live in? Join our Editor and Publishing Director Sana Goyal for a conversation on connection and public and private revolutions with Y M Abdel-Magied, whose novel At Sea offers a searing takedown of Big Oil; Molly Crabapple, who tells the story of the Jewish Bund movement in Here Where We Live Is Our Country; and Hannah Lillith Assadi, whose Paradiso 17 is loosely based on her father’s exile from Palestine after the Nakba. 

We are thrilled to announce Pakistani translator and writer Haider Shahbaz as Wasafiri's new International Translator in Residence, as part of Wasafiri’s three-year partnership with the SALT (South Asian Literature in Translation) Project, which supports and promotes English-language translations of literature written in the languages of South Asia.
