Eliminating Vision Problems – 2023 Children’s Eye Care Art Competition




To promote vision health among school children in New Taipei City, the Education Department and Department of Health of New Taipei City Government collaborated with Far Eastern Memorial Foundation, FEMH, Asia Eastern University of Science and Technology and National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University on a children’s vision care campaign in 2021 to improve vision health among school children.
In 2023, Far Eastern Memorial Foundation brought back Professor Yiing-Mei Liou from National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, who has a wealth of knowledge in vision care for children. The foundation hosted the 2023 eye care art campaign with FEMH, Asia Eastern University of Science and Technology, Rotary District 3481 and Yung Chi Paint and Varnish Manufacturing Company Ltd., and the Education Department of New Taipei City Government served the advisory role. Third to sixth graders from elementary schools in New Taipei City were invited to paint the landmarks of New Taipei City with their families in an outdoor environment. A total of 56 teams registered for the competition.
Tpark was chosen as the venue for the comfort, greenery and relaxing atmosphere that the office workers and local residents enjoyed on a daily basis. With an ecological park that occupies approximately 30,000 square meters, children and their parents could protect their vision by relaxing their eyes when painting in this urban oasis.
