To promote knowledge of works of Argentine literature and thought abroad, the present Translation Support Program was established by Ministerial Resolution No. 41 on February 2, 2009, to encourage and strengthen the publication of these works in foreign languages.

Some of the main features of PROSUR are:

- These works can be chosen from different literary genres and by classic and contemporary Argentine authors, whose themes are representative of the national identity.

- The Program was launched based on the commitment assumed by the Argentine Government to promote the translation of works by Argentine authors, to facilitate their publication in foreign languages, and to disseminate our imagination, ideas, and values abroad.

- Since its creation to date, the "PROGRAMA SUR" has promoted over 1,652 works translated into 50 languages.
