Integrating intelligent living, production and disaster prevention into a sustainable community assessment system for the rural village regeneration in Taiwan

In 2010, the Rural Regeneration Act in Taiwan proposed to "promote a rural regeneration project and build a new rural village with prosperity and beauty". This project could alleviate the outflow of population, the aging population, the lack of basic infrastructure, slow development, the loss of the unique environmental characteristics, and serious underdevelopment of villages. The active development of villages, on the other hand, was employed to prevent marginalized development in villages. However, can such a policy meet the demand of the development of villages in countries all over the world in such a way that it protects the lifestyles of farmers, farm produce, and farm ecologies? Therefore, this study developed a model for the examination of ecological concerns, safety, and disaster prevention for rural development, with the international mechanisms for sustainability and eco-community assessment. This result may be used for developing policies in the public sector dealing with issues such as rural development, the reduction of global warming, and the improvement of rural ecology and residential spaces.
