1. LITPRAX project presentation at the Frankfurt Book Fair : Frankfrut, 22. 10. 2023Barbara Pregelj, 2023, other performed works Abstract: Slovenia was the guest of honour at the Frankfurt Book Fair, which took place from 18th to 22nd October 2023. Representatives of the LITPRAX consortium, namely Bojana Kovačević Petrović, Ivana Živančević Sekeruš (Faculty of Philosophy and Letters, University of Novi Sad), Barbara Pregelj, Aleš Cigale, Katarina Kogej and Polona Konjedic (Malinc publishing house), presented the LITPRAX project several times: two face-to-face and one virtual round table, two stands (the LITPRAX stand and the stand at the Slovenian national stand) and numerous meetings with publishers, agents, editors, translators, illustrators and other interested public from all over the world, as well as with high representatives of the Slovenian state (the President of the State, the Minister of Culture, the President of the Republic of Slovenia, representatives of the Office for Slovenes around the World, the Croatian and Romanian Ministries of Culture), representatives of cultural institutes and publishers’ associations (Association of Spanish Publishers, Association of Valencian Publishers, Association of Basque Publishers, Association of Galician Publishers, Institut Ramón Llul, Institut d’estudis Balearics). The project was thus presented to more than 170 professionals in person and to more than 190 online viewers.

2. Imaginary:Hospitality : Atithi:DevaAbiral Khadka, 2023, artistic work Abstract: The imaginaries of hospitality
have been changing ever since
people were moving places,
migrating – meeting, welcoming
and leaving each other. A
famous Sanskrit verse equals
guest to God.

3. ROUND TABLE: TRANSLATION IN AN INTERCULTURAL CONTEXTBarbara Pregelj, Ilide Carmignani, Elisabeth Pérez Fernández, Mariela Nagle, other performed works Abstract: Translating children's books into different cultures means not only processing the text into another language, but also transferring the level of illustration, which is an additional challenge. There, the different realities of children's lives play a big role: environment, skin colour, religion, etc. as well as cultural paradigms.

4. Pollutant removal with organic macrocycle-based covalent organic polymers and frameworksTina Škorjanc, Dinesh Shetty, Ali Trabolsi, 2021, review article Abstract: Air, water, and soil pollution devastate countless ecosystems and deteriorate human health. Adsorption has commonly been used as a pollutant removal technique, but ongoing materials science research is still searching for more efficient, cheaper, and scalable sorbent materials. Herein, we discuss the synthesis and pollutant-capturing abilities of covalent polymeric structures, including covalent organic polymers and covalent organic frameworks that contain organic macrocycles in the backbone of their structures. These organic macrocycles (cyclodextrin, calixarene, cucurbituril, pillararene, and porphyrin) possess cavities and functional groups that can sequester pollutants by forming supramolecular interactions. The insolubility of these materials prominently aids in their regeneration and recyclability potentials. Following a discussion on the synthetic strategies used in the polymerization of each type of macrocycle, environmental applications of these materials are presented. Here, we focus on the removal of micropollutants, charged species, metal ions, oils and organic solvents, perfluorinated substances, iodine, and volatile organic compounds.
Keywords: supramolecular interactions, host-guest chemistry, organic macrocycles, covalent polymers, covalent organic frameworks, environmental remediation, adsorption
