Arts Journalism Matters Fellowship

In this virtual residency, I was able to learn more about what is cultural diplomacy all about and how I am able to write about things from a neutral point of view, while inject some of my opinions. Our mentor was Audrey Wong, who has very kindly guided us throughout our journey and also encouraged us to dig deeper into the different topics that we might have interest in.

It is a privilege to be a part of this with the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) because I have gained a lot of insights from the European nations about the different takes on culture and diversity. Through this experience, I have realised that the possibilities to collaborate on an international level are endless, as long as we are able to be aligned in our vision and needs.

The portfolio will be updated with the output from the coverage of the Cultural Diplomacy Lab from 24 - 27 October 2023 when it is published by ASEF and ENCATC, as well as the podcast the I will be producing in January 2024.
