There will be four panels including: Taiwanisation and Reinvention, Digital Retrieval Systems and Innovation, AI in Education and Schools, and Digital Visualisation of Research.
In addition, the team of "Taiwan as a pioneer" will launch their database TAP HUB in a hybrid session to share results of the project. We kindly invite everyone interested to join this hybrid session on October 2, 9:30 am - 10:30 am. For more information, please click on the program or the database launch poster below.

From March 18 to 20, 2024, Dr. Josie-Marie Perkuhn, Dr. Thomas Fliß and Dr. Amélie Keyser-Verreault visited Dr. Hsu Yu-Yin in Bochum for the internal Workshop. Julia Zachulski also joined them in their fruity discussion, while other assistants, such as Yi-syuan Wu and Damir Padieu, joined online to discuss the retrospect and database further. Besides these topics, the TAP members also talked about future internal and external collaborations, the Travel Grant of 2024 and the TAP international workshop in Bochum later this year.
To reflect on new trends in Taiwan studies, the 2023 International Workshop in Tübingen brought together several young scholars and researchers working on Taiwan from 4 to 6 October. In this three-day discussion, TAP members shared the latest advances in their research and invited scholars to present their methodologies on Taiwan issues in various fields.
From January 10 to 13, 2023, Dr. Hsu and Dr. Fliß joined Dr. Keyser-Verreault at the ERCCT for the internal TAP workshop. Dr. Perkuhn participated online. Among other things, they discussed the further collaborations between the TAP members, the digital database, and methodologies.
The TAP team also met with Dr. Chen Teng-Hsiang, postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Sinology of the Academia Sinica and newly appointed visiting fellow at the ERCCT. They discussed with him the pioneering nature of the religious phenomenon he studies, opening the door to future collaborations.
The Mapping Research on Taiwan workshop brings together young scholars and researchers working on Taiwan to reflect on new trends in Taiwan research.
The workshop has three major goals:
The initial TAP Workshop took place from 4–6 May 2022 in Trier. This internal Workshop was the first opportunity for the involved postdoc researchers to meet in person. The main topic focused on the joint task to establish a digital infrastructure for research data. In addition, the workshop participants gained interesting insights from lecturer Ms. Wu Yi-syuan about the Taiwan Fellowship Program and digital research databases in Taiwan.
