A month after officially ending the second edition of ASEF LinkUp | Asia-Europe Cultural Diplomacy Lab, what were the main highlights of the Lab?
A group of 18 arts professionals and representatives from the government sector, spanning the backgrounds of performing arts, cultural policy, cultural heritage, visual arts and more, “linked-up” to explore what is needed for successful international cultural cooperation. What are the current challenges in working internationally? And, most importantly, what do we want to see for the future for Asia-Europe cultural relations?
These 18 professionals gathered in Prague, Czech Republic from 10 to 13 June, and the 4 days were filled with discussions, site visits and exchanges on the current state of international cultural cooperation and soft power between Asia and Europe.
