CCBF’s fellowship programme – Shanghai Visiting International Publishers project (SHVIP) is one of CCBF's most important exchange programmes, as well as Asia’s first fellowship project exclusively dedicated to children’s publishing. It is mainly designed for publishing managers, publishers and editors of all levels.
The SHVIP application period closed on 25 June. An increasingly competitive programme, SHVIP has broken all records with 152 high - quality applications from 45 countries and territories. Given the stunning level of the applications received and in order to celebrate the new partnership between CCBF and BolognaFiere, SHVIP is exceptionally offering 12 positions instead of the 10 usually attributed in this programme.
Following the established calendar, we are pleased to release the list of selected candidates for the 2018 edition. We are proud of the quality and diversity achieved in this group and looking forward to welcoming the SHVIP fellows in Shanghai from 5 to 10 November.
