ASIAN NETWORK OF INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE

The Asian Network of Industrial Heritage (ANIH) was officially established in March 2018. The ANIH aims to work in collaboration with industrial heritage societies to develop common vision of Asian industrial heritage. It is a follow up of the 15th TICCIH (the International Committee for the Conservation of the Industrial Heritage) Meeting in 2012 in Taiwan with the result the Taipei Declaration for Industrial Heritage. 
The network will play a role to empower Asian narratives on its industrial heritage which mostly was built during colonial era by colonial powers. In Asia, industrial heritage has not only experienced modernization, but is closely associated with daily life, memory and social change. 

Secretary office of ANIH is located in the Cultural and Creative Industries Park, Taichung City, a former Taisho Brewery Company in 1916. 

The First Forum of ANIH took place in the Taichung Cultural and Creative Industries Park, 30-31 May 2018. This meeting was also parallel with Exhibition of "The Footprint of Asian Sugar Industrial Heritage."

Heritage hands-on joined both programs and inspired tremendously by other participants. Hopefully ANIH will play an active role in the near future to encourage more dialogues and publications about and amongst Asian players in industrial heritage.
