Welcome to
International Society for Science, Art and Innovation 

Before the Dutch rule of Taiwan in the 17th century, the Kaohsiung Plain was the residence of the Makadao tribe, an aboriginal tribe of Taiwan, scattered among tribes such as the Dajiejishe, Ahoushe, Fangsuoshe, and Dagoushe. The hills and mountains are hunting areas for the Tsou, Paiwan, Bunun, Rukai and other ethnic groups. As for the coastline, Kaohsiung City borders the Taiwan Strait to the west and the Bashi Strait to the south. The western half is alluvial plain terrain such as the Chianan Plain and the Pingtung Plain, and the eastern half is mainly mountainous (Yushan Mountains, Central Mountains), extending to Yushan; in the urban part of Shoushan on the coast of Gushan, half of the east side of Zuoying Pingshan, as well as Fengshan Hills in the southeast (on which Fengshan Reservoir is built) and Gangshan Hills and Alishan Mountains in the northeast. Shoushan and Banpingshan are both formed due to the uplift of coral reefs.

International Society for Science, Art and Innovation keeps the area-based conservation measures (OECMs) of the uplift of coral reefs for Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes and Seascapes (SEPLS) to fit the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF).

International Society for Science, Art and Innovation expects to contribute to IPSI’s strategic objectives:
• Knowledge Co-Production, Management, and Uptake: Knowledge co-production, management, and uptake for area-based conservation measures (OECMs) for Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes and Seascapes (SEPLS) among university students, residents, farmers, social groups, and social organizations.
• Institutional Frameworks and Capacity Development: Utilize convergent farming methods and conduct field demonstrations with tribes on farmland so that indigenous people can learn how to plan species communities in food forest systems. 
Instructors led participants through practical exercises on how to properly prepare the soil for plant cultivation, from assessing a producer's goals in terms of yield and product how to properly prepare the soil for plant cultivation, considering the various elements that affect the land, such as climate, soil, slope, and position of the sun. Soil characteristics of the application area and exploring the most suitable cover types for different plants to enhance ecosystem restoration and strengthen the institutional frameworks and capacity development.
• Area-Based Conservation Measures: Shoushan and Banpingshan are both formed due to the uplift of coral reefs.

• Ecosystem Restoration: Taking full advantage of the full utilization of local forest resources is not only an innovative practice that combines wood working techniques and environmental education but also a demonstration site for local talent development and resource recycling.
• Sustainable Value Chain Development: Agriculture is not just agriculture but may also be one of the important keys to solving climate change. The "4‰ initiative" proposed by France at the Paris Climate Summit points out that as long as the soil carbon content is increased by 4‰ every year, in addition to improving soil health and improving food security, there is also an opportunity to reverse the global warming crisis and adjust the climate and create the sustainable value chain development via the carbon initiative.
