Mission Statement
We present trusted and authentic perspectives of Taiwan and the region.
TaiwanPlus is the voice of a vibrant, free Taiwan and Asia. At a time when Taiwan’s international presence is being suppressed, and many voices in the region are being silenced, TaiwanPlus tells these stories in a way that informs, inspires and empowers.
We celebrate globally shared values and humanity.
Our mission is to celebrate freedom, equality, human rights, openness and innovation, values that define Taiwan and the world in which we all want to live.
We showcase the vibrant culture, diversity and beauty of Taiwan.
Through our unique brand of digital storytelling, we aim to showcase the vibrance and diversity of Taiwan, and all that this beautiful island nation has to offer.
About Us
TaiwanPlus (Taiwan+) is an independent media organization funded by the people of Taiwan, and is the nation's first English-language video news and programming platform for an international audience.
Headquartered in Asia's most progressive and transparent media environment, TaiwanPlus is committed to truth, neutrality, and diversity in its storytelling. We offer multimedia coverage of regional issues and world affairs, telling the stories of Taiwan in a way that resonates globally with a balanced regional perspective to international news.
TaiwanPlus aims to become a leading voice on topics important to Taiwan and a platform reflecting our shared values of democracy and innovation that inspire and empower.
What Does "TaiwanPlus" Stand for?
You’ve probably seen our logo and some of our other animations. But they’re not there just to look pretty, there’s a story behind them, and we’ve invited Johnason Lo, founder of JL DESIGN, to tell it, and illustrate how it embodies Taiwan’s identity, and what Taiwan Plus stands for.
What is Taiwan?
We spoke with a couple of our colleagues about their experiences talking to others about Taiwan and some of the difficulties that presents.
