The Chair of Spatial Planning is cooperating with the National Taipei University’s Graduate Institute of Urban Studies on a bid to the Taipei City Government. The proposal is to assist with a strategy and regeneration plan for the National Palace Museum, Taipei and the nearby Yangming Mountain National Park. The initiative comes from Yu-Tzu Lin (Keats) and will involve a student studio in Taipei. In 2010 Vincent Nadin and Remon Rooij participated in a similar project on urban regeneration at Nangang, Taipei with Leuven University and King’s College London.
On 2 April, Yu-Tzu Lin represented the cooperative team member to present the proposal for Taipei City Government and again the team won the bid. There will be some staff involved in the planning process in Taipei by the way of workshops, forum and so on.
