Cofacts
Community 3F #3
Cofacts
Since 2016, Cofacts has evolved from a local grassroots initiative into a pivotal player in the global fight against the infodemic. By leveraging open-source technology, the project has created a collaborative ecosystem where human intelligence and automated tools work in tandem. Unlike top-down fact-checking models, Cofacts empowers citizens to report suspicious messages, which are then addressed by a community of volunteer fact checkers. This methodology not only addresses the scale of information manipulation but also reinforces the importance of digital human rights by transparency and preventing centralized censorship.
Central to the Cofacts mission is the belief that technology alone cannot solve the problem of disinformation. The organization places heavy emphasis on media literacy, helping users develop the critical thinking skills necessary to navigate a complex digital landscape. By making their codebase and data publicly available, they champion the open-source philosophy, allowing other nations to adapt their tools to different linguistic and cultural contexts.
Cofacts recognizes that information threats are borderless. By actively building international bridges, such as this collaboration between Cofacts Taiwan and Cofact Thailand, they facilitate the exchange of technical expertise and localized insights. This cross-border solidarity is essential for protecting the integrity of open data and helping that civic tech continue to generate a positive social impact. Through these partnerships, Cofacts developed in Taiwan contribute to a more resilient and informed global society.

Sketch Of Taipei
Sketch of Taipei (SKOT)
Founded in 2022 by Taiwanese illustrator Grace Chiu, Sketch of Taipei is a sketching workshop that brings people to different locations across Taipei to observe and document the city through drawing.
SKOT encourages participants to develop a practice of observation—using the simple tools of pen and paper to capture, process, and express what they see in their daily surroundings. Whether sketching a bustling street corner, a quiet neighborhood, or a community gathering, participants learn to engage more deeply with the spaces they inhabit.
The workshops create a mindful approach to recording everyday life. Through sketching, people slow down, notice details they might otherwise overlook, and build a personal visual archive of their experiences. This analog, human-centered way of documenting cultivates awareness and reflection, helping participants see their environment and their role within it. It's a practice that makes the invisible visible and empowers people to actively engage with the world around them.
Nowhere Bookstore

Nowhere Bookstore
When the past ended in nowhere, the future starts from now here.
Nestled in Taipei, Nowhere Bookstore inherits the spirit of Hong Kong — openness, resilience, and fluidity. It serves as a meeting point where people transcend cultural and national boundaries, connecting through a shared love of reading.
Beginning in 2022, Nowhere Bookstore has followed the footsteps of diasporic communities, gradually establishing branches in different countries, included the Netherlands, Tokyo, New Zealand and England (coming soon).
We curate a selection of books published in Hong Kong and Taiwan, focusing on themes such as history, culture and gender. Our bookstore also features a dedicated zine section showcasing Chinese-language or bilingual zines created by independent artists from around the world. These zines explore a wide range of topics, including illustrated journals, storybooks, photography, social commentary, gender, and diasporic experiences. We believe that both books and zines can serve as experimental platforms for cross-regional and cross-cultural reading.

Kuma Academy
Kuma Academy was founded on the belief of “Si vis pacem, para bellum”. Kuma Academy aims to prepare a pre-war mentality for civilians, our mission is to cultivate self-defense capability and will to defend Taiwan. We provide knowledge and skills to help people sustain themselves and recognize enemy disinformation operations in both peace and wartime situations.
Kuma Academy’s goals extend beyond any partisanship in Taiwan; we believe that war impacts everyone. Societal resilience requires citizens to defend themselves and contribute their skills. Active preparation and anticipation can alleviate public fear and increase determination to defend and resist invaders, ultimately building a protective shield for our country.
Civil Defense Education
Kuma Academy is devoted to promoting civil defense education through Open Lectures on various issues, Basis Camps in four major civil defense areas and advanced courses in skill training. The four main domains include modern warfare popular science, information warfare, basic first aid skills, as well as evacuation planning workshops, all contributing to the efforts of building social resilience.
Promotional Activities
Civil defense concerns all ages and backgrounds. Basic techniques can be practiced in everyday life. Through thematic activities we bridge the gap between individuals and communities: community event and corporate family day. These activities offer knowledge , techniques, interactive experiences, fostering disaster awareness, and basic skills.
Publications
Kuma Academy aspires to become the leading brand in Taiwan civil defense education, providing practical and inspirational publications. The first book, a civil defense reader for teenagers, was published in 2023. In the future, a series of easily understandable publications will continue to offer the public a collection of civil defense knowledge.
Wilderness Drill
Designed for post-Basis Camp students, this activity involves simulated scenarios and requires students to equip themselves for life support, rescue, and evasion. Students will have the opportunity to validate their equipment in practical situations such as mass casualties or enemy pursuit. This allows us to assess whether the students are physically and psychologically prepared to handle such situations.

LZGH

LZGH
""LZGH (綠洲計畫) is a volunteer team composed by university and high school students, craving to feedback to the current education system. Founded in beginning of 2023.
Special Recruitment (特殊選才) is an admission pathway started in 2014, providing pupils with special talents to enroll outside of traditional pathways. But because of the very few quota and little attention, schools and teachers often possess little to no resource to guide the students attempting this pathway. That is exactly why we are here.
We strive to help the students who seek to attempt special recruitment to enroll in university by establishing information platform and in-school experiment sharing. Let the students know the problems they might encounter beforehand.
LZGH is also the Outstanding volunteer team from 2023-2026, awarded by Young Development Administration, MoE. Supported and backed by many charity foundations such as Cathay Charity Foundation, Sinyi Realty Inc.
This year, we're working to deepen our collaboration with various information communities such as SITCON, g0v and different volunteer teams. Hope we can know more people and pave our way for the future in this event.""

Open Development Cambodia (ODC)
Open Development Cambodia (ODC) is a leading independent open data platform established in 2011 to promote transparent, evidence-based development in Cambodia. Initially launched as a project to centralise fragmented information, ODC officially registered as a local NGO in 2015. Our organisation operates as a non-partisan ""one-stop shop"" for data, aggregating and mapping information on social and economic development to ensure that public-interest data is accessible to all stakeholders, from local communities to international investors.
Our work focuses on critical development issues that shape Cambodia's future. We specialise in the visualisation and analysis of data regarding natural resource management, economic land concessions (ELCs), Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), infrastructure projects, environmental conservation, foreign investment in Cambodia, access to public service, and many more. By providing objective spatial data and research, ODC helps stakeholders understand the complex intersections between economic growth and environmental sustainability.
A core pillar of ODC’s activism is the vigorous promotion of an Open Data Policy in Cambodia. We believe that the democratisation of information is essential for good governance and a thriving digital economy. Our advocacy efforts focus on urging and supporting the Royal Government of Cambodia to make progress on opening data access. With accessible data, ODC then ensures that public data is available, reusable and comprehensible.
To achieve this, ODC actively engages in policy dialogues with government ministries, providing technical expertise to help shape frameworks that balance transparency with data privacy. We complement this high-level advocacy with grassroots capacity building, training civil society, journalists, and youth in data literacy. By bridging the gap between data providers and data users, ODC strives to create an ecosystem where information serves as a tool for accountability and transparency and fostering inclusive participation in the nation’s development.
