Welcome to International Central!

The International Central Region (ICR) is a virtual region made up of SCBWI members in more than 60 countries around the world that do not have a local SCBWI chapter.

No matter where in the world you are, we can help you create and connect with fellow children's book artists, authors, translators and more.

Below you will find information about the programs and resources created by Rekha Salin, the Regional Advisor, and the rest of the International Central Regional Team.
