Project FundingTaipei Taimei, Taiwan (Rotary Club) 4000 USD Community needs, project impact, and sustainabilityCommunity assessment: How the project team learned about the community’s needs Based on the information available, it appears that there is a significant population of people with disabilities in Taiwan, representing around 5.1% of the total population. Elderly individuals and those with mild to moderate disabilities are the most common groups within this population. In order to best support this community, it may be important to understand their specific needs and challenges. We learn the specific needs from the Arts Promotion Association for the Disabled R.O.C. . The association is working to address the unique needs of this community and promote greater inclusion and participation in society. Project impact: How the project will help the community after the project ends The festival project's impact will extend beyond its live performances and online broadcasting, benefiting the community in several ways after its conclusion. Firstly, it will have raised awareness about the importance of the arts and fostered a deeper appreciation for diverse performances that promote DEI. Secondly, it will have created new opportunities for local artists and producers to showcase their talent and reach new audiences globally. Finally, it will have inspired and empowered visually impaired people in Taiwan, who may have faced limited access to live performances, to participate in cultural events and foster greater inclusion and diversity in the arts community. Overall, the festival project will leave a lasting legacy of cultural enrichment, community engagement, and social impact. Sustainability: How the benefits of the project will continue afterward Firstly, the online platform created to host the festival can remain accessible to audiences globally, enabling them to continue to engage with and appreciate the diverse range of performances that were showcased. This platform can serve as a valuable resource for artists and producers, helping them to reach new audiences and promote their work in the long term. Additionally, the festival's impact on the local community is likely to be lasting, inspiring greater awareness and appreciation for the arts and promoting greater inclusion and diversity in the cultural sector. This could lead to the creation of new cultural events and initiatives that further promote DEI and expand the reach of the arts in the community. Finally, the festival project may serve as a model for future projects that aim to promote the arts in challenging circumstances, providing a roadmap for cultural organizations seeking to adapt and innovate in response to changing circumstances.
