Let’s go home – The children of Nalou indigenous village
Located in Hsinchu County’s Jianshi Township, Nalou village was formerly home to a large group of Atayal people. However, following serious damage to community industries by Typhoon Aerein in 2004, many people were forced to relocate and it became evident that there was a drain on the Atayal’s traditional cultural.
In a meeting between Hsinchu County’s Community Empowerment Center (社區營造中心) and local indigenous people, ‘light tourism’ was proposed as a measure to jointly address this village problem. Following the meeting, with the hope of developing a long-term economic model for the community, the village began working on two main areas: "leisure agriculture" and "eco-tourism".
With the theme of implementing ecological conservation and natural farming, in August and September of 2014, the Community Empowerment Center raised the ‘Hunter’s Camp’ and ‘Farmer’s Camp’ for the second time. It is hoped that through creating work opportunities, the events will convince more indigenous people to remain in the area and perhaps even attract back some of the countless young people who have left home to find work.
Bringing together indigenous villages from 13 townships in the county, Hsinchu County’s Community Empowerment Center has also created “Good Market 13 (13好市集)”, which provides fresh local agricultural produce and hand-crafted products. Nalou indigenous village is just one member of “Good Market 13”, which has helped establish a direct relationship with consumers.

回家吧 那羅部落的孩子
新竹縣尖石鄉那羅部落曾是大型泰雅族部落,但自從2004年艾莉颱風重創那羅部落後,社區產業受損,人口外移嚴重,更有傳統文化流失問題。新竹縣「社區營造中心」進入部落與族人共同商討對策,提出以「輕旅行」的方式,打造部落「休閒農業」及「生態旅遊」兩條路線,期望能發展出長久的社區經濟模式。
2014年八、九月社造中心在那羅部落第二次舉辦「獵人種籽營」及「農耕種籽營」,進行生態保育、農耕技術兩大主題的培訓課程,期望部落族人能留在家鄉,甚至吸引在外工作的年輕人有機會一同回部落打拼。社造中心也於竹北市成立新竹縣「13好市集」,集合全縣13鄉鎮的部落、社區提供當地的特色農業、手創產品,建立起與消費者的直接關係,那羅部落也是參與其中的一員。
