PROGRAMMES & JOINT INITIATIVES

Build a cooperation foundation through the first international programmes, then enter the annual alliance mechanism.

The Bangkok international conference and art exhibition co-organised by the Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts, Chulalongkorn University, and other universities, together with the Bangkok cultural exchange around Awakening Lion and Odes to Heroes, provide formal and executable opportunities for international participation. Participating institutions may subsequently apply for membership or development-partner status and advance annual activities, institutional mechanisms and joint initiatives.
