Exiled Writers Ink, founded in 2000, brings together established and developing writers from repressive regimes and war-torn situations and it equally embraces migrants and exiles. Providing a safe, welcoming space for writers to be heard, Exiled Writers Ink develops and promotes the creative literary expression of refugees, migrants and exiles, increases their representation in the mainstream literary world, develops cross cultural dialogue and advocates human rights and social justice through literature and literary activism.

We affirm that Exiled Writers Ink will not tolerate any expression of racism, hate speech or discrimination or the stifling of freedom of speech and conscience. Exiled Writers Ink will continue to be a welcoming space where individuals from all marginalised and minority groups gather to read, write and create as citizens of humanity beyond artificial divides.
