To enhance public awareness of climate change and mobilize the public to participate in low-carbon sustainable homeland initiatives, the Climate Change Administration of the Ministry of Environment has been promoting the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Program since 2015. Through voluntary participation, villages are encouraged to implement low-carbon, sustainable actions. Local governments, driven by policy incentives, have also established efficient, dedicated promotion organizations. These organizations serve as a nexus connecting central government, village communities, industries, non-governmental organizations, and other resources. Their enduring commitment lies in executing long-term low-carbon sustainable actions and educational outreach, guiding citizens to actively practice low-carbon actions in their daily lives.
To fortify the construction of low-carbon sustainable homelands, in addition to maintaining the existing promotion system for low-carbon sustainable homelands and managing evaluation scheme-related matters, this plan conducted exemplary village workshops as diverse platforms for dialogue. This process introduced the “community-based” spirit of climate adaptation, gathering and consolidating village opinions, incorporating feedback from experts and scholars, and seeking external consensus. This was followed by the development of key indicators for gold-level ratings, thereby enhancing the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Evaluation Scheme.
This plan aimed to promote public understanding of the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Certification and was also aligned with revisions to the evaluation scheme, enhancing the review and inquiry processes for achievement documents, maintaining the review of registration documents, and reinforcing the quantified data reporting for evaluation functions. Simultaneously, this plan strived to continually promote the benefits of the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Information System while addressing cybersecurity concerns. These efforts aimed to strengthen the functionality of the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Information System interface and enhance user-friendliness.
Furthermore, to encourage sustained participation in the Low-Carbon Sustainable Homeland Program and to motivate awarded villages to invest continuously in their capabilities, this project, building upon existing carbon reduction efforts, intensified its implementation. It showcased various carbon reduction approaches through a diverse village performance competition, accompanied by publicly broadcast highlight videos. In addition to the competition, related exhibition events were organized to showcase the carbon reduction wisdom and achievements of each village in their daily lives, involving approximately 2,500 participants. The ultimate aim was to encourage public participation to collectively promote these initiatives.
