About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

100,000 students in Taiwan's remote villages were abandoned by the education system.Remote villages are regarded as resource-poor and low learning achievement areas, schoolchildren have been handed out for a long time.We try to improve the motivation of students through professional skills learning, co-publishing with them , so that they can change the fate of poverty through their own hands.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

We set up a publishing platform to help professionals formulate their skills, and obtained ISBN to become officially published books, so that all rural students in Taiwan can use it for free.We cooperate with rural schools to lead students to learn professional knowledge through the author's sharing, provide skills that can change students' poverty and enhance their motivation to learn.This platform not only provides learning materials, but also enables schoolchildren in remote areas to become book authors. So far, we have published four books with rural schoolchildren.
In 2019, we won the recognition of hundrED with the "Co-Publishing Project". In 2020, we lead the rural school children to endorse urban activities, and in 2022, we publish a picture book by the rural school children combined with local agricultural products to help them use their own hands to gain recognition. So far, the publishing platform has earned $24,000 in education funds for schoolchildren in remote areas.

How has it been spreading?

We has created 22 books and e-books, and received an income of 24,000 US dollars. We have arranged models, painters, florists and photographers to help remote villages students create their own products. The number of beneficiaries has been More than 500 people. We have won three awards in Taiwan, and received 20 news reports, which were viewed by more than 100,000 people, so that the Taiwanese government and people can care about education in remote areas. The most important thing is that the students from remote villages have learned professional skills. They endorse activities for the Kaohsiung City Government and use picture books to marketing their hometown agricultural products. In the next 2-3 years, we will create 100 books and 5 local employment opportunities for rural students.

If I want to try it, what should I do?

We welcome professionals with professional knowledge to provide their expertise, and arrange to edit them into formula books for free use by schoolchildren in remote areas. At the same time, they will be sold on the e-book platform, and all the proceeds will be returned to the student education fund. The work can be done by contacting "heavencts@gmail.com".
