- for a substantial contribution to Belarusian immortality, Natallia Hardzienka and Liavon Yurevich became winners of the Francišak Bahuševič Award with the publication «Book of Cemeteries. Belarusian Burials in the World» (Kamunikat.org Foundation, 2024).
In addition to these two awards, the Belarusian PEN Board honored Siarhiej Dubaviec's book «A Century of NN» (Viasna, 2024) with a special mention for its creative reinterpretation of national classics.
