The Taiwan-France Cultural Award, launched by the Ministry of Culture (MOC) and the French Academy of Moral and Political Sciences, is now accepting applications until May 31.
The award was established in 1996 with the purpose of awarding every year two prizes for artistic or literary works that shed light on relations between Taiwan and Europe and/or contribute to the enhancement of cultural exchange between Taiwan and Europe.
Each prize is worth €25,000. Applications may be submitted by any natural or legal person from mainland Europe or Taiwan who meets the Foundation’s objectives. Candidates must be able to demonstrate that their research work, cultural programs, reports, publications, artistic creations, etc. have been completed or are in progress, and are directly related to Taiwan.
The MOC stated that entries will be examined by the Foundation’s jury, made up of French and Taiwanese academics, in Paris or Taipei. The winners, informed by the Academy, will be invited to attend the award ceremony at the Institut de France.
