這個暑假，
你要進入台灣的後台。
凌晨的批發市場、移工的生活圈、連爸媽都沒帶你去過的台灣角落——
和來自美國的同齡夥伴一起，用影片說給全世界看。
每一站都有不同的後台場景。
以下是三個等你去完成的任務。
凌晨，台北最大的果菜批發市場剛開始喧鬧
今天全台北的蔬果，在這裡被喊價、被挑揀、被決定值多少錢。一顆長得不夠漂亮的番茄，永遠比漂亮的那顆賣得便宜。
你穿著青蛙裝走進桃園的埤塘
這不是玩，這是桃園的水資源守護行動。埤塘是桃園特有的灌溉系統，也是很多生物唯一的家。
你用英文，帶一個美國同學去你平常去的地方
他來過台灣，但他認識的台灣可能是觀光版的。你的日常，對他來說就是全新的世界。
※ 實際體驗場域依城市站別（台北／新北／桃園）而異，詳細行程請見完整計畫說明。
六天，你要完成一支真正的 YouTube 影片。
- 不是回家作業，不是課堂報告。
- 從第一天開始，你就有拍攝任務。
- 每到一個地方，你的小隊要問：
最後一天，你們把六天走過的後台台灣剪成一支影片——
關於那些在台灣每天發生、但大多數人從來沒看過的人與事。
不需要任何剪輯經驗。
需要的是願意看、願意問、願意說。
為什麼這六天值得？
真實的國際英文環境
20位台灣學生 × 20位台美學生，從第一天就混編成隊。不是上英文課，是每天都要用英文完成任務、解決問題、拍出一支給全世界看的影片。
40小時服務學習時數認證＋AVSA 美國志工服務獎資格
由慧智文教基金會正式核發，中英文雙語證書。每站可獲得40小時，若跨站累積100小時以上，可申請 AVSA 美國志工服務獎，不限國籍，台灣學生亦可申請。

慧智文教基金會1994年創立於美國加州，30年青少年培育專業經驗，已培訓超過50,000位青少年，長期承辦海外與地方政府的青少年培力專案。

Your parents call it home.
You've never seen the real thing.
You've studied Chinese for years. This is where it becomes real.
3AM wholesale markets. Wetland conservation in frog gear.
A Taiwanese classmate who knows every shortcut in the city you've only seen as a tourist.
Six days behind the scenes — with teammates your age, making a film about what you find.
Every city has its own backstage.
Here are three missions waiting for you.
3AM. You're inside Taipei's biggest wholesale produce market.
This is where the city's food supply gets sorted, priced, and shipped before sunrise. A tomato that doesn't look perfect sells for less. You'll see exactly why — and who decides.
You're in frog gear, standing in a Taoyuan pond.
Taoyuan has thousands of these ponds — an ancient irrigation system that most people drive past without a second look. They're also a critical habitat. And they need people to show up and do the work.
A Taiwanese classmate is taking you somewhere tourists don't go.
You've been to Taiwan before. You've done the night markets, the temples, the mountain views. This is different. This is their actual Tuesday.
* Actual program locations vary by city session (Taipei / New Taipei / Taoyuan). Full itinerary available on the program page.
Six days.
One real YouTube film.
- Not a school project. Not a slideshow for your parents.
- From Day 1, your team has a camera and a mission.
- Every place you visit, you ask the same question:
On the last day, you put it all together — a film about the Taiwan most people never see.
The workers, the communities, the daily lives behind the island your family comes from.
No editing experience required.
Just show up, pay attention, and be willing to tell the story.
Why this trip is worth it.
A real connection to Taiwan — not a tour
Most Taiwanese-American kids know Taiwan through family visits and night markets. This is something different: six days embedded in local communities, working alongside Taiwanese peers the same age.
40-hour certification + AVSA eligibility
Each session earns 40 official hours, certified by WCEO. Students who accumulate 100+ hours can apply for the American Volunteer Service Award (AVSA) — open to all nationalities. A concrete addition to any college application.
30 years. 50,000+ alumni. Government-partnered.
WCEO was founded in Fremont, California in 1994. Three decades of family education, cultural programs, and Asian-American youth development — training over 50,000 young people. Not a new program. A proven institution.
Pick a city. Go behind the scenes.
