Miaoli Community College volunteers safeguard the cultural and ecological heritage of the Old Shepherd's Trail

For the last Try Shoot+ event of 2023, PeoPo brought citizen journalists to the Old Shepherd's Trail in Houlong, Miaoli. Here, they learned how volunteers from Miaoli Community College used traditional methods to restore the trail, transporting them back into scenes from the past. Listening to the detailed explanations of the community college volunteers, participants gained insights into plants and trees along the old trail, experiencing the emotional journey the volunteers went through in constructing the trail. The event also allowed new citizen journalists to meet and exchange ideas with seasoned counterparts.

With Miaoli's beautiful mountain and sea landscapes as the backdrop, together with the enthusiasm of citizen journalists, the last Try Shoot+ event of the year came to a close. In January next year, PeoPo will continue leading you to counties and cities across the nation to address new issues; please stay tuned for more exciting adventures ahead!

苗栗社大志工手作步道 守護牧羊古道文化與生態

2023年最後一場Try拍+活動，PeoPo帶公民記者們來到了苗栗後龍的牧羊古道，了解苗栗社大的志工夥伴們是如何用手作的方式，將早期居民放羊的羊仔路，修復還原成過往的生活景象。聽著社大志工細心講解，認識古道上的一草一木，體會當時志工們修築步道的心路歷程。也讓新進的公民記者也能藉由活動認識其他資深的公民記者，彼此交流。

今年最後一場Try拍+活動，就在苗栗美麗的山海景緻和公民記者熱情的包圍下畫下了句點，明年1月PeoPo將持續帶大家到不同的縣市去關心新的議題，請公民記者朋友們敬請期待。
