Dare, Eleanor, Simmons, Tom, Ramanathan, Rathna and Oakley, Peter, 2019, Printed Publication, Crafting futures: Scoping visit reports and proposals for pilot projects in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan

Abstract or Description:

'Crafting Futures creates new networks and opportunities for shared learning between the UK and other countries around the globe. The programme supports research and education in craft, ensuring projects are relevant and the quality of creative practice is preserved and continues to develop. Crafting Futures offers designers and artisans access to knowledge and expertise, new markets and new audiences, ensuring the value of craft is appreciated more broadly and knowledge can continue to be shared within the sector.’ (design.britishcouncil.org). RCA researchers Tom Simmons and Eleanor Dare visited Kyrgyzstan in November 2019; Peter Oakley visited Kazakhstan with Martin Quinn (University of Leicester) in October 2019; and Marta Gasparin and Steve Conway (University of Leicester) visited Uzbekistan in November 2019. This report summarises the visits and includes an analysis of opportunities for future collaborations.
