Foundation grantee brings Pacific voice to Malaysia producers camp

In this article, dance director and producer Tupe Lualua reflects on her week in Malaysia where she took part in the Asia Producers Platform (APP) camp—a peer-to-peer initiative that connects arts producers from across Asia. The programme is designed to foster collaboration, exchange skills, and support the development of artistic works and cultural practices across borders. As the producer of dance theatre works by Tupua Tigafua and the founder/director of Le Moana and the Measina Festival, Tupe brought a distinct Pacific voice to the gathering, contributing to and learning from a dynamic community of creative professionals. Her trip was supported by a grant from the Foundation’s Arts Practitioners Fund.
