Actual edition

The Foundation gives an award annually for the best research project on Mercè Rodoreda’s work or on the novel and short story from the fall of Primo de Rivera until end of Franco’s regime (1930-1975). Four grants are also awarded annually. They are granted by the Technical Commission made up of Joaquim Molas i Batllori, Joaquim Mallafrè i Gavaldà and Carles Miralles i Solà.

In the 2012 Sant Jordi Awards given by the Institut d'Estudis Catalans, the Mercè Rodoreda Foundation gave the annual award to Eva Bru-Domínguez for Beyond containment: Corporeality in Mercè Rodoreda’s literature.
