Discovering Taiwan Through Her Stories

Under the influence of traditional patriarchal culture, historical records and landscapes often highlight men or major events, while women’s presence, roles, and contributions are frequently overlooked or hidden. Since 2015, the FWRPD has been conducting field research and collecting materials to reinterpret Taiwan’s local culture and history through gender perspectives. This brings women’s daily lives to light, showcasing how they have shaped Taiwanese society. By uncovering these often-neglected yet deeply impactful stories, we offer a fresh perspective on Taiwan. We encourage the public to join the walking tours, which challenge gender stereotypes and acknowledge the social and economic differences among women, ultimately promoting the visibility of women with diverse backgrounds.
