1. Training and Education Programmes Contents: Holding annual training camps and organizing specialized lectures, exchange activities and information briefings.
The top priority of the Chair is to host training, workshops and practice programs. It focuses on high - quality and high-level practical training with the theme of “World Traditional Handicraft: Inheritance and Innovation,” and gives priority to female practitioners and young inheritors in less developed regions. In the meantime, the Chair values the participation of designers and social forces, teaching of modern comprehensive knowledge and the role of modern high technology so that practitioners of traditional handicrafts can have the opportunity to learn and improve their skills.
2. Basic Database and Information Sharing Platform for Practitioners Contents: Playing a leading role in the mapping of regional handicrafts and tourist information, and the development of the basic database of practitioners in the region, and promoting regional cooperation. There are a variety of handicraft resources and traditional cultures worldwide. Due to lack of promotion or information channels, they remain unknown to the outside world. Rational use and effective development of the resources will turn cultural resources into important assets for regional economic development. Practitioners of traditional handicrafts in less developed regions can hardly sustain their livelihoods from selling their works and products due to lack of market information or promotion channels, and poor transportation.
The Chair will work with local governments, international organizations, specialized institutions, internet companies and new media platforms, and gather resources on the internet, networking and education to jointly build a basic database of traditional handicrafts and information sharing platform.
3. Academic Communication Contents: Holding academic forums, organizing exhibitions, building museums for world traditional handicrafts, and preparing and publishing academic books or journals.
With the support of the UNESCO education network, the Chair will take active steps to build academic and networking resources, and hold academic forums and seminars on a regular basis to promote exchanges and dialogues in the academic field, and enhance research on the inheritance and innovation of traditional handicrafts worldwide. It will launch theme exhibitions, strengthen interaction and coordination in innovation with all sectors of society, particularly communities and higher education institutions, share research findings, and prepare and publish academic publications.
