The Taiwan Reyhanli World Citizen Center, abbreviated as the Turkey Taiwan Center, together with the Metaverse Business Applications Center, announced a charity NFT exclusive authorization fundraising project on the 5th. The aim is to use the tamper-proof technology of blockchain to record the entire process of charity fund execution, gaining the maximum trust of fundraisers and promoting the further development of charitable causes.
The Taiwan Center, officially named the "Taiwan - Reyhanli World Citizen Center," was established in 2017 and is Turkey's first building constructed in collaboration with a foreign country with the purpose of assisting refugees. It is a public space created in Reyhanli in collaboration with the Taiwan government and the Reyhanli Municipal Government, fostering a sense of global citizenship. The center aims to promote co-prosperity between Turkey and Syria and enhance inclusivity between different cultures.
In its early stages, the Taiwan Center received project funding from the United States and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Taiwan. It also raised funds on the well-known platform "Zeczec." This year, it secured a budget from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and invested in building renewable solar and wind energy systems, as well as a water resource recycling system, making it the world's first "100% net-zero carbon" refugee camp.
Additionally, through the establishment of a cooperative of refugee women, the Taiwan Center promotes and sells local handmade crafts and spices through e-commerce, striving for self-sufficiency and achieving the ideal value goals of a social enterprise. These internationally acclaimed charitable initiatives were all orchestrated by Taiwanese architectural scholar Qiu Zhenyu, allowing the world to see Taiwan with a more diverse and creative perspective.
Qiu Zhenyu, the driving force behind the establishment of the Turkey Taiwan Center, shared the challenges faced in rescuing refugee children and building the first shelter. One significant challenge was the lack of fundraising tools and channels to connect to international platform resources. Through the "Charity NFT - Taiwan Center WEB 3 Fundraising Scheme" planned in collaboration with "Together," Taiwan, facing difficulties in directly participating in humanitarian aid activities due to its international status, now has the opportunity to fully unleash its potential.
The NFT issuing entity for this project is "Join it Management Consulting Technology Co., Ltd.," a company committed to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Chairman Xue Weili, recently awarded the Good Person and Good Deed Representative Award by Kaohsiung City, stated, "Using cutting-edge technology combined with creative charity is the best way to break down international barriers and promote Taiwan's love and care."
The planned commemorative NFT for charity is distributed for free, not for sale. Anyone concerned about the development of the Taiwan Center and those who have made donations can directly claim it online. The goal is to use the tamper-proof technology of blockchain to record the entire process of charity fund execution by the Turkey Taiwan Center, ensuring transparency at every step and gaining the maximum trust of fundraisers to further promote charitable causes.
