What happened
The National University of Singapore proposed a ceramic heritage diplomacy concept linking Singapore and İznik. This proposal follows discussions on global ceramic traditions, such as the 2026 Jingdezhen Forum, which brought together experts from 25 countries to discuss heritage conservation and exchange.
Why it matters
The concept builds on the international recognition of ceramic heritage sites, such as the Jingdezhen Handicraft Porcelain Industry Sites, which were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This type of international cooperation can create opportunities for cultural exchange and preservation funding.
