Awards and scholarships
The association recognizes significant work in translation by presenting different awards and scholarships. In cooperation with the Slovenian Book Agency and several publishing houses, the association bestows the annual Sovre Award on one or two Slovene translators for best translation. To recognize remarkable achievements in translation and life work in the area of mediating Slovene literature to foreign nations the association presents the Lavrin Diploma (conferred on Erwin Koestler in 2010 and Andreea Lück Gaye in 2011).
At the Slovene Book Fair young and budding literary translators are honoured with the Young Translators Award. In order to support and stimulate translation work, it presents a number of residency and working scholarships.
