TNUA hosted the board meeting of the Asian League of Institutes of the Arts (ALIA) on December 12. More than 20 participants representing ALIA members from Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Turkey, Mongolia and Singapore attended the meeting to discuss various issues concerning the development of the organization.

Apart from TNUA President Yang Chyi Wen, who is currently chairperson of ALIA, the others who attended the meeting included: the Kyoto University of Art and Design's Vice President Prof. Tatsuo Miyajima and its director for international affairs, Prof. Aiko Hirai; the Korea National University of Arts' President Prof. Kim Bongryol and Vice President Prof. Kim Kyungkyun; Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University's Rector Prof.  Yalçin Karayagiz and Vice Rector Prof. Süreyya Kayhan Ülker; Prof. Uranchimeg Dorjsuren from the Mongolia State University of Arts and Culture; and the Lasalle College of the Arts' Senior Fellow Aubrey Mellor from Singapore.

TNUA Vice President Prof. Chung-Shiuan Chang and other administrators also attended the meeting.

At the latest board meeting, Prof. Yang noted that since its founding in 2012, ALIA has been growing towards becoming a major international organization. It has redefined the role or art and has been working towards building a global cross-boundary network founded on art and culture.

In order to promote log-term and healthy development of the organization, the board meeting discussed matters concerning ALIA's management, cooperation between members, and regional exchanges.

One of the decisions made at the meeting was that ALIA members will jointly publish a common textbook with “Art and Peace” as its theme in 2018. The Kyoto University of Art and Design will be in charge of the textbook project. 

The meeting also set ALIA's calendar for 2016: the ALIA 2016 Symposium in Kuala Lumpur is in March; the next board meeting takes place in Mongolia in July; and the ALIA 2016 General Assembly in Istanbul, Turkey is held in October along with the ALIA-ELIA Joint Meeting.
