Taiwan as a pioneer - Transferphase
Taiwan as a Pioneer receives funding for a final transferphase
The project addresses Taiwan's role as an innovator in the dynamics of global megatrends. It aims to transfer knowledge from the first project phase of the preceding collaborative project "Taiwan as a Pioneer" (February 2022 to January 2026). In this year, TAP will increase awareness of the collaborative project's results, expand the established interdisciplinary research network beyond the project partners, and reaches out to societal actors beyond the realm of academia. The targeted goals involve:
- The permanent institutionalisation of Taiwan studies within the sinological community through the development of an interdisciplinary network
- Knowledge transfer via the project's database to long-term archiving and the publication of the collaborative book project of Taiwan studies
- The development of a portal for Taiwan studies within Trier University's digital infrastructure, providing user-friendly public access via two publication platforms – the "TAPHub“ database
The project pursues the overarching goal of strengthening and networking Taiwan studies within the small field of Sinology.
