In conjunction with the implementation of Taiwan’s Bilingual Nation 2030 Policy and following the launch of the U.S.–Taiwan Education Initiative on December 3, 2020, the K-12 Education Administration of the Ministry of Education is encouraging elementary, secondary, and high schools in Taiwan to seek suitable counterpart schools in the US for language-learning and culture related exchanges and collaboration.
The goal of such exchanges and collaborations is to build mutual understanding between the young people taking part and enhance their interest in learning languages and cultures. This will help nurture future global citizens with an international vision and a better ability to understand international issues. Schools can begin with ICT-based cultural exchange programs, then advance to cooperative teaching or online courses.
Elementary and secondary schools in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut that are interested in exploring language and cultural cooperation with a school in Taiwan can contact the Education Division of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York at newyork@mail.moe.gov.tw. We will be happy to assist schools in these states in finding suitable partner schools in Taiwan.
