Call for Participation, 4th International TAP Workshop

"Taiwan’s Responses to Global Megatrends" International Workshop from Project TAP "Taiwan as a Pioneer – Local Innovation in the Dynamics of Global Megatrends"
Trier University, 1–5 September 2025

For our final project year, we would like to invite academics and young scholars re-searching Taiwan to our 4th International Workshop from 1 to 5 September 2025 at Trier University. If your research contributes to Taiwan’s Responses to Global Mega-trends or apply innovative methods to Taiwan Studies, we would like to encourage you to join our program. The TAP team engages with a broad range of topics, ap-proaches, and methods. We invite submissions that explore local responses in Tai-wan (climate change responses, innovation technologies, digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence, migration, demographic changes, and rapid urbanisation). We particu-larly invite submissions that address Taiwan's innovative role and responses to glob-al dynamics and megatrends. We also favor innovative methodologies, methods, and new perspectives on Taiwan studies.
