Overview
TaiPI (Taiwan Polar Institute)
With a global outlook, the TaiPI is at the forefront of Earth science research, addressing the pressing challenges of global warming and environmental change. Our research team explores the complex dynamics of the Earth’s climate system, analyzing its effects on ecosystems, landscapes, and polar environments, offering essential data and insights to advance scientific understanding and climate action. Through international collaboration and independent observations, we have transformed from being "data recipients" to "scientific data providers" in the polar research domain, enhancing Taiwan’s active participation in global climate governance.
Our mission is to convert rigorous scientific findings into foundational support for global environmental governance. By serving as a bridge between academic research and practical solutions, we actively engage in international partnerships, fostering the integration of domestic and global research resources to establish a vital platform for polar science and climate change research. This positions Taiwan as a key player in driving global climate action.
Moreover, TaiPI emphasizes interdisciplinary innovation, public science education, and cross-sector collaboration, enhancing societal understanding of climate change and cultivating the next generation of global leaders with exploration-driven spirit and international perspective. With confidence in our expertise, we continue to strengthen international collaborations and contribute Taiwan’s scientific knowledge and capabilities to safeguard the Earth and future generations.
The Taiwan Polar Institute has set up an overseas workstation, TaiArctic, located at Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway,
