Shahrazad and ICORN go to Tokyo

On Wednesday 29 October at 17:30, ICORN will be present at a meeting in Tokyo on how to prepare the foundation for cities of refuge for persecuted writers in Japan and Oceania. ICORN guest writer Sihem Bensedrine, Barcelona city of refuge coordinator Raffaella Salierno and ICORN director Helge Lunde will be presenting the ICORN organisation and Japanese cities (among them Hiroshima and Nagasaki) and representatives from Australia and New Zealand are expected to attend.

The meeting is organized by the Japan PEN club, and is included in the programme for the World Congress of International PEN, who is convening in Tokyo from 25-30 September 2010.
