Established in May 2016, Migrants’ Park is an independent online media platform reporting on foreign workers and immigrants in Taiwan. As the name implies, the platform is for migrants who have moved to Taiwan from other countries - mainly Southeast Asia - and devoted their life to local society. The name Migrants’ Park is a reflection of the culture of migrants in Taiwan, who often meet up in local parks to chat and enjoy themselves, an activity that helps to ease the sense of homesickness many experience.
Founded by the former editorial team at 4 Way Voice, the current core members of Migrants’ Park includes Editor-in-Chief Li Yue Xuan (李岳軒) and Chief Executive Officer Peng Yiwen (彭以文). The pair decided to establish Migrants’ Park after feeling that Taiwan’s migrant workers from Southeast Asia were still subject to a great deal of unfair treatment. Through the platform, they are continuing to play the same role as 4 Way Voice, giving a voice to the vulnerable, reporting and sharing the life stories of migrants in Taiwan. It is hoped that Migrants’ Park will facilitate a coming together of divergent peoples on the island of Formosa.

移人 關心台灣異鄉人
《移人》是一個報導台灣移工、移民的網路獨立媒體，於2016年5月底開站。移人，顧名思義為移動的人，也就是從他國移動到台灣，並為本地社會貢獻青春歲月的移工和新移民族群，其中多半是東南亞的朋友。而英文名稱《Migrants’Park》代表這個網站是「移人」的園地，也象徵公園，因為移民工多半在公園裡與同鄉朋友們聚會聊天，是讓他們開心、紓解鄉愁的地方。
《移人》由前《四方報》編輯團隊創立，目前核心成員為編輯總監李岳軒和行政總監彭以文。他們有感於台灣社會的東南亞移民工至今仍受到許多不平等的待遇，因此合夥另創《移人》，來延續《四方報》替弱勢發聲的理念，持續報導、撰寫異鄉人在台灣的生命故事，希望讓大家在寶島的土地上接納彼此。
