The French-Taiwanese Cultural Foundation was established in 1996 under the aegis of the French Academy for Social and Moral Sciences with the purpose of “awarding every year two prizes for artistic or literary works that shed light on relations between Taiwan and Europe and/or contribute to the enhancement of cultural exchange between Taiwan and Europe.”
Each prize rises to €25,000. Any natural person or legal entity from any European country or from Taiwan, who subscribes to the Foundation’s objectives, may apply.
Candidates must produce research, proposed cultural projects, reports, publications, artistic creations, etc., – completed or still in progress – directly related to Taiwan.
After filling in the form below (in French, Chinese or English) and enclosing the documents such as literary works, research or other cultural projects, together with letters of recommendation, the candidates should send the application before May 31st to the mail address as below:
Académie des sciences morales et politiques, Fondation culturelle franco-taïwanaise 23, quai de Conti – 75006 Paris
or to the following email address: chapfe@outlook.com
Applications will be submitted to the members of the Foundation’s examining committee – French academicians and Taiwanese academics – in Paris or Taipei. The prize-winners will be notified by the Academy and invited to attend the Award ceremony at the Institut de France in Paris.
