SDG 11.2.6 Record and preserve cultural heritage
Since 2017, NCUE has set up the "Indigenous Student Resource Center" to support indigenous people in developing the diverse wisdom and talents of the indigenous community. The Center also builds indigenous-related data and conducts analysis, and integrates various resources of indigenous people in order to protect and record the indigenous cultural heritage of Taiwan. Every year, in order to pass on and preserve the traditional culture (intangible heritage) of the indigenous peoples and to enhance the teachers' and students' understanding of the cultures of the indigenous peoples, the Center organizes culture-related activities. Related activities are listed in Table 1.
