Cultural City Profiles for East Asia

TFCC undertook a major research programme to develop a portfolio of cultural profiles of 60 cities across East Asia. We assembled a consortium of TFCC associates to undertake detailed mapping of the cultural assets of cities in China, Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam. This had a particular emphasis on 2nd and 3rd tier cities - which have a still emergent international profile. This project sought to offer the UK Creative and cultural sector a digital bridge to other lesser known cities to help partners in the UK to appreciate the unique attributes and strengths of cities in East Asia. It provides a detailed prospectus of cities across East Asia and delivers insights on their diversity, dynamism and potential.
