Public Square
DFA book fair to highlight Filipino books this National Book Month

IN celebration of the National Book Month this November, and in anticipation of the country's participation as guest of honor in the Frankfurt International Book Festival in 2025, the Department of Foreign Affairs' Office of Public and Cultural Diplomacy, together with Savage Mind Bookshop and Ateneo de Naga University Press, will hold a series of online and on-site events, celebrating the importance of Filipino books and creative contents in forging a book-loving nation.

This first-of-its-kind event aims to provide multi-sectoral and multilingual platforms and approaches to better appreciate and understand Philippine contemporary writings as exemplified by the books coming from the regions.
