The Fulbright Program is a prestigious international exchange program that supports researchers in various fields around the world. Since 2018, the Ministry of Culture (MOC) has collaborated with the Foundation for Scholarly Exchange (Fulbright Taiwan) to offer Taiwanese arts professionals opportunities to deepen their expertise in the United States. To date, 19 recipients have completed the program.
The MOC emphasized the importance partnership between Taiwan and the U.S. across a wide range of sectors, including politics, economics, culture, and academia. Through the collaboration with the Foundation, the MOC hopes to foster greater artistic exchange and exploration, while supporting participants in expanding their professional knowledge and global networks.
To help applicants better understand the application process and requirements, two information sessions will be held by the Ministry of Culture and the Foundation for Scholarly Exchange, respectively. One will take place on June 26 at the Taiwan Contemporary Culture Lab (C-LAB); the other is slated for Sept. 9 at the Foundation’s Cultural Lecture Hall. The sessions will cover application procedures, key points for filling out the required materials, and include experience-sharing by past award recipients. All are welcome to attend.
