The Television and Radio Writers’Association (TRWA) is a cultural organization of scriptwriters in Japan.

Its purpose is to promote mutual communication and to contribute to broadcast culture.

Incorporated on September 18, 1959, the TRWA has five branches and several committees within them. It boasts more than one thousand scriptwriters as members (as of June 2007), and is one of the largest cultural society in the world.

We carry out various educational projects such as training programs for potential scriptwriters, extramural classes, and radio and TV program script competitions to foster new talent. Recently, we have started to work for the foundation of the Japan Script Archives to preserve and promote the use of valuable scripts.

We are also involved in international activities. We sponsored the Morishige Prize from 1992 to 1995, an international radio program script competition.

Since 2006,we have taken part in the TV Drama Forum of East Asia and make a comparative study of broadcast scripts with television scriptwriters of othercountries.
