The Orwell Foundation is the home of The Orwell Prizes and The Orwell Youth Prize. We use George Orwell's work to celebrate honest writing and reporting, uncover hidden lives and confront uncomfortable truths – and, in doing so, to promote Orwell's values of integrity, decency and fidelity to truth.WHAT WE DO
Welcome to the official website of The Orwell Foundation. From the corruption of truth to pervasive new technologies, and from poverty and inequality to the rise of political extremism, George Orwell's concerns are as relevant to the twenty-first century as they were to the circumstances in which his great novels were conceived. Though our prizes, events, workshops and resources, The Orwell Foundation aims to offer a platform for debate and discussion designed to appeal to the widest possible public audience, connecting with everyone to whom George Orwell and his writings are a source of inspiration.UPCOMING EVENTS
