Taiwanese Indigenous and Hakka cultural promotion

Overview

Cultural preservation and promotion efforts are being implemented across various regions in Taiwan, focusing on Indigenous and Hakka heritage.

In Taoyuan City, the Indigenous Affairs Bureau launched the inaugural ‘Taoyuan Indigenous Shopping Festival’ to increase the visibility of indigenous-owned brands and enterprises. Simultaneously, the Hakka Affairs Bureau collaborated with the professional baseball league to produce the nation’s first bilingual Hakka-Chinese broadcast, which utilized AI-driven language tools and attracted over 700,000 viewers.

In Pingtung County, Hakka culture is being promoted through community talent shows featuring performing arts and dialect challenges. Educational initiatives, such as the Hakka graduation song project at Zhutian Elementary School, aim to connect younger generations to the language through original musical compositions.
