This is not a project that records disappearing traditions out of pity. It is long-term research that asks, up close, what communities change, keep, and lose in order to survive. We are looking for supporters and partner institutions to carry the next fieldwork, translations, archives, and open materials forward together.
Individual Support
Funds the next fieldwork, translation, transcription, archiving, and open-access materials. How funds are used is disclosed concretely.
Institutional Partnership
We welcome joint projects, international exchange, and programme collaboration with cultural institutions, research bodies, and foundations.
Sharing Materials
Records, photographs, oral histories, documents about intangible cultural heritage communities — in any form, they thicken this research.
Talks & Workshops
We accept invitations for talks, workshops, and consultation. Another way this research meets the field.
Research Partnership
Beyond Jeju, Okinawa, and Taiwan — we seek long-term collaboration with researchers and practitioners who share these questions about surviving traditions.
Contact
Participation is not limited to the five ways above. If there is a way you would like to meet this research, tell us — in any form.
