Asian Festival of Children's Content 2013 - Now Open for Registrations

Date: 25/05/2013 to 30/05/2013     Type: Online

The Asian Festival of Children?s Content (AFCC) brings together content creators and producers with parents, teachers, librarians, and anyone interested in quality Asian content for children.

With a mix of professional conferences, masterclasses and workshops, rights fair and media mart, and public events, AFCC is a unique and popular event right here in Asia that provides an opportunity for writers, illustrators, editors, publishers, agents, distributors, parents, children, teachers, and librarians to meet, learn, develop their craft, and discover business opportunities.

The National Book Development Council of Singapore has been organising the highly popular Asian Children?s Writers & Illustrators Conference for the past ten years. Leveraging on its success, the conference was expanded to form AFCC which has emerged as a very popular professional and trade event since 2010.

AFCC impacts 1.5 billion children in Asia as well as their parents, professionals, and businesses involved in their development.

CONFERENCES:

AFCC Teachers Congress, 25 May 2013: The congress provides teachers and educators with the skills and knowledge to impart early literacy through bilingualism to their charges as a child transitions from early childhood to primary school.

AFCC Parents Forum, 25 May 2013: The forum offers parents, teachers, and other related professionals the opportunity to get support, information, and advice on nurturing early learning and bilingualism at home.
Children?s activities are available on site.

AFCC Seminars, 27 May 2013: For writers, illustrators, bloggers, and industry professionals, AFCC Seminars offer specialised sessions that focus on specific aspects of the literary community: Young Adult Literature, translation for children?s books, and blogging.

AFCC Media Summit, 29 May 2013: The only transmedia conference in Asia with a focus on children?s content, the Media Summit focuses on maximising content through transmedia storytelling.

AFCC Writers & Illustrators Conference, 28 – 29 May 2013: The conference celebrates children?s content from Asia and around the world. This year?s programme will have an added emphasis on Young Adult literature and children?s works in translation.
