Article · Nederlands
PEN International is een internationale schrijversorganisatie die zich inzet voor de vrijheid van meningsuiting, samenwerking tussen schrijvers overal ter wereld en literatuur als intercultureel bindmiddel. Vandaag telt de organisatie 149 centra in 100 landen en is georganiseerd naar taalgebied. Oorspronkelijk stond PEN voor Poets, Essayists and Novelists (dichters, essayisten en romanciers), maar intussen heeft de organisatie alle schrijvende beroepen omarmd, waaronder ook journalisten en toneelschrijvers.
