The 2022 Taiwan Placemaking Festival will take place in Taitung. This year's event will be bigger than before letting the world see all of Taiwan's placemaking work and experiences.
Magistrate April Yao leads the Taitung County Government Team to promote Taitung's Slow Economy. Yao believes as the world becomes more internationalized, cities need to further develop their local assets, only then will that place's true value be shown.
In recent years, many local groups have created many excellent examples of regional revitalization by using Taitung's superior natural environment and deep inside knowledge of its ethnic communities.
This year's Taiwan Placemaking Festival will have 600 placemakers from regional revitalization groups coming from all over Taiwan. They will be visiting 11 locations between the East Coast, the South-Link, the East Rift Valley, and Taitung City to observe, learn, and network. It serves as a stage for these groups to organically cultivate Taitung, so that this piece of land's authenticity, friendliness, and beauty is seen by all.
