The objective of this project was to provide the international community convenient channels to understand how Taiwan carries out its environmental protection policy as well as its achievements. This is done by translating professional reports concerning the development and future trends related to Taiwan's environmental protection policy into English and publishing them in periodicals as well as on the Internet. As of the end of March 2011, 12 issues of the English version of Environmental Policy Monthly were published, with 1,000 copies for each issue. Among the 1,000 copies, a total of 728 copies were mailed out each month, with 405 copies sent out domestically and 323 internationally, while 100 copies were for Environmental Protection Administration’s (EPA) own use. In addition, a total of 4,074 electronic copies were sent out over the Internet. Combining the mail outs and Internet copies, the total readership for the Environmental Policy Monthly came in at 4802. Contents of the Monthly were provided to Taiwan’s EPA for use on relevant departmental Web sites. Two editors were also sent to the EPA to assist with the editing of English documents. Other tasks included producing and updating the EPA's short and long versions of multimedia English presentations twice as well as providing the English version of the EPA's two policy briefings to the Legislative Yuan in 2010. The Environmental Policy Monthly database and search system were also maintained and updated regularly. This project also translated and printed 800 copies of EPA introduction leaflet into English.
