Literature Wales is delighted to be working with the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales to search for a Future Generations Poet in Residence. This is a new and exciting opportunity for an emerging poet in Wales to bring the Act to life.
What are the most crucial issues facing future generations in Wales and beyond? Is it climate change, future skills, the survival of our culture and language? What are your hopes and wishes for your future and future generations, what should be our long-term legacy?
The Well-being of Future Generations Act is unique to Wales attracting interest from countries across the world as it offers a huge opportunity to make a long-lasting, positive change to current and future generations.
During your residency you will have the opportunity to engage with the Future Generations team, public bodies and people across Wales to support the development and themes of your work. We will also support your work through live performances, a short film or series of podcasts.
The opportunity is open to any practising poet living in Wales, with an ability or some ability to speak Welsh.
