Pol·len Edicions

Independent books and critical ideas

Pol·len Edicions is an independent publishing cooperative that publishes books focused on critical thought and eco-publishing. Its catalog includes essays, poetry, fiction, comics, photojournalism, and children's literature, with titles in Catalan, Spanish, and Galician.

A wide-ranging catalog

The publisher's subjects include agroecology, food, antiracism, anthropology, socially engaged architecture, ecology, the social and solidarity economy, feminism, historical memory, journalism, food sovereignty, and urban planning. Its list includes original works and translations, as well as the Ecoedició and Nova Tinta series.

Eco-publishing

Environmental publishing practices are central to Pol·len's work. The cooperative helped develop BookDAPer, a tool that measures the environmental impact of publishing. An updated version was presented in 2025.
