Funded Activity Summary

Connecting Asia-Pacific Literary Cultures: Grounds, Encounter and Exchange. This project aims to enhance cultural connections between Asia-Pacific nations by defining and testing a new model for linking writers and writing. The project expects to generate new knowledge about creative writing as a collaborative artform that enables, and is enriched by, deep and sustained cultural exchange. Expected outcomes include a robust model for ethical literary encounters and exchanges and the development of a dynamic regional literary network. It seeks to provide benefits that include broadening the reach and power of Australia’s diverse literary voices and stories, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous, enriching the lives of readers and viewers, and strengthening Australia’s capacity for cultural diplomacy in the region.
