A competition for young people aims to encourage engagement with a Mallorcan writer and the literary heritage of the Balearic Islands.

The Balearic Islands’ education authority is organizing a literary competition for secondary and upper-secondary school students. It focuses on Joan Alcover, drawing attention to his work and his importance to Catalan literature on Mallorca.

Through the competition, the authority hopes to reach young people who have recently arrived on the islands. Alcover’s writing is intended to help them discover the language and culture of the Balearic Islands.

The competition also aims to encourage literary creativity and raise awareness of the islands’ literary heritage. It is intended to strengthen the connection between schools and Balearic culture.
