新加坡虽以华族为主要族群，但华族文化的传承近年来受到全球化和西方化的冲 击，尤其在年轻一代的国人中，华族文化的认同感与实践逐渐式微。然而，华族文化 在新加坡社会中扮演着至关重要的角色，其不仅关系到华人的身份认同，也影响着国 家的发展。由此，如何在现代社会环境下持续传承华族文化成为了值得深入研究的议 题。本文以耗资1亿1000万元兴建的新加坡华族文化中心作为研究对象。文化中心自 2017年成立以来，致力于推动新加坡华族文化的传承与发扬，并积极策划了多元化的 项目，如展览、演唱会、工作坊等吸引国人参与其中。本文将以其五个重点项目—— 《华彩》、《Sing·浪》演唱会、《锐·MIX》文化青年节、《SINGAPO人》常设展及 《新加坡华族文化百科》——作为研究案例，分析其华族文化的传承策略与成效。通 过研究发现，文化中心的策略侧重在于年轻一代，并通过现代化的方式进行文化推广， 例如在华族文化元素上结合流行音乐、数码科技等，使华族文化更贴近年轻人的生活。 Although Ethnic Chinese constitutes the majority of the population in Singapore, the preservation of Chinese culture has been increasingly challenging in recent years due to factors such as globalization and westernization. This phenomenon is particularly evident among younger generations, whose cultural identity and engagement with Chinese culture have gradually diminished. However, Chinese culture continues to play a crucial role in Singapore, where it helps to shape the identity of the Chinese community and contributes to the development of the nation. Therefore, the study on how to preserve and promote Chinese culture in midst of the ever-changing world remains a topic worth examining. This project aims to explore Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) role as a pillar in the preservation and promotion of Chinese culture in Singapore by analysing the projects organised. Since its establishment in 2017, SCCC has been organizing a variety of programs, including exhibitions, concerts, and workshops. This project will focus on examining the strategies and effectiveness of five key projects initiated by SCCC, which include “Cultural Extravaganza”, “Sing•Lang” Concert, “Re•Mix” Youth Cultural Festival, “SINGAPO人” Exhibition, and Culturepaedia. Findings revealed that SCCC primarily targets the younger generation, where it utilises modern approaches, such as integrating Chinese cultural elements with modern music and technology to make Chinese culture relevant and interesting for the younger generation.
