A clear purpose
France Formosa is a Franco-Taiwanese cultural diplomacy association. Its mission is to strengthen the cultural and diplomatic ties between France and Taiwan by combining academic research, institutional relations and concrete cultural projects.
Founded on the conviction that relations between two democracies are also built through culture, research and civic dialogue, France Formosa acts as a bridge between French and Taiwanese civil societies.
Our founding principles
Intellectual independence
Our analyses and publications are guided by academic rigour and objectivity, free from partisan affiliation.
Intercultural dialogue
We believe in the richness of exchanges between cultures and civilisations, and in the power of dialogue to bring peoples closer together.
Democratic commitment
France and Taiwan share fundamental democratic values that we are dedicated to promoting and defending.
Concrete action
Beyond reflection, we carry out fieldwork: diplomatic missions, conferences, cultural events and institutional partnerships.
