Taiwan Africa International Service Association

Taiwan Africa International Service Association (TAISA) is a non-profit organization established in 2008 by volunteers from National Tsing Hua University and Fu Jen Catholic University. Officially registered in Taiwan, TAISA focuses on implementing meaningful service projects in Africa, addressing the needs of schools, medical institutions, and communities through careful evaluation and planning.

TAISA values active collaboration with local partners, emphasizing mutual trust and shared goals. Volunteers work closely with individuals and organizations to co-create, transfer, and localize skills and knowledge, ensuring a sustainable impact deeply rooted in the communities they serve. This people-centric approach has fostered lasting friendships and cooperation between Taiwan and Africa.

Through these initiatives, TAISA facilitates cultural exchanges that allow Taiwanese volunteers to gain a deeper understanding of Africa’s diverse cultures and traditions. In turn, these efforts promote greater awareness of Africa within Taiwanese society, advancing TAISA’s mission of building bridges and cultivating mutual growth across borders.
