The British Council is currently inviting creative proposals for SPARK 2021 from individuals and organisations in the UK and Hong Kong that explore connections across cultures, celebrate the theme of inclusion, are accessible and reach diverse audiences.
SPARK 2021 is a place for creativity, collaboration and visionary thinking. A British Council online festival, it celebrates inclusion and connections in and across our communities and offers a platform for cultural exchange between Hong Kong and the UK through arts, education and the English language. It will take place on 20-23 October 2021.
Each proposal should be a partnership between UK and Hong Kong organisations or individuals. They should stimulate truly global conversations around inclusion and diversity, and bring people from all walks of life across cultures and communities together to understand each other’s perspectives. All proposals should be able to be showcased or accessed digitally during and after SPARK. They should also be as low-carbon and environmentally friendly as possible.
Please share more details about your proposed online event by completing this online form and returning it to us by 4 June 2021. You may also see the EOI form in word format to have an overview of the questions, or to draft the answers as the online form does not support save and edit functions.
