APP Camp 2025

In 2025, the Asian Producers Platform (APP) will host our annual APP Camp across two countries - Taiwan and Japan. This gathering of producers from across the region will develop industry networks, build friendships and knowledge; explore producing as a creative practice and deepen intercultural practice.

Taking place over 9 days from 22 - 30 November, participants will have the opportunity to explore the local arts and cultural ecosystems in Southern Taiwan and Okinawa, Japan.

Through a varied program of activities including site visits, lectures, discussions, research, performances and peer exchange, participants will learn about local arts and cultural scenes and gain an understanding about cultural policy and the landscape in which artists work, while meeting, exchanging and learning from fellow producers from across Asia. Participants will also build an understanding of the local and international socio-political contexts, challenges and opportunities faced by producers and artists working in these places.
