[International Cooperation] Taiwan, UK Academics Propose Re-development Plan for Tainan City (Chinese Version)

NCKU News (2012/07/12) Professors and students of National Cheng Kung University and Architecture School of Architecture Association (AA), United Kingdom, have jointly explored possible approaches to the urban development of Tainan City in southern Taiwan.

During the 10-day NCKU-AA Intensive Workshop hosted by Tainan City Government and NCKU, 12 professors and 62 students from NCKU and Architecture School of Architecture Association (AA) discussed and debated the best way to use large chunks of public properties surrounding the NCKU area for urban regeneration.

NCKU President Hwung-Hweng HWUNG welcomed tutors and students of Housing and Urbanism from AA to join the teachers and students of NCKU’s College of Planning and Design at the workshop that ended on July 11.

The collaboration between NCKU and AA on railway underground project last year triggered productive discussions and this year’s theme -- on the holistic strategies for rejuvenating the NCKU area, according to HWUNG.

The transnational academic collaboration between NCKU and AA on the issues of urban renewal is unprecedented in Taiwan, said Tainan Deputy Mayor Charles LIN who hailed the opportunity of collaboration between the two universities.

In the efforts to solve the urban problems and improve living quality of Tainan citizens, the Tainan City government is ready to take in the suggestions and proposals compiled in the workshop, according to LIN.

The subjects of the workshop are four public sites at Tainan City, namely 96 Military dependents’ village, TzuChiang Military dependents’ village, JingZhong 3rd Military dependents’ village, and Ordnance Accessories Factory, which were investigated closely by the participants divided into four groups to develop feasible plans over the 10-day workshop.

On the last day of the workshop, the four groups proposed their approaches and strategies for generating a more productive urban condition in Tainan. A public debate with the Deputy Mayor, City Government officials and many of the other stakeholders was held to wrap up the workshop.
