Overview

The Next Generation Transportation Union (Chinese: 下一代人本交通促進會) is a Taiwan-based non-governmental organization founded on August 20, 2024. It grew out of the Next Generation Student Pedestrian Rights Alliance (下一代學生行人路權聯盟), which organized Taiwan's first major pedestrian-rights march in Kaohsiung in 2023. The organization is driven by students and young people and centers its advocacy on "human-centered transportation" (人本交通). Its activities span policy oversight, public awareness campaigns, and representing the rights and interests of student groups. The group's stated mission is to make it possible for everyone to return home safely, reflecting its focus on road safety and pedestrian-friendly urban design. As a civil-society organization rather than a commercial enterprise, it operates in the public-interest and advocacy space in Taiwan.

History

The Next Generation Transportation Union (下一代人本交通促進會) is a Taiwanese non-governmental organization that formally registered on August 20, 2024. Its origins lie in the Next Generation Student Pedestrian Rights Alliance (下一代學生行人路權聯盟), a student-led group that organized Taiwan's first island-wide pedestrian-rights march in Kaohsiung in 2023. Building on that momentum, the alliance reorganized into the current union to broaden its scope from student pedestrian rights to a comprehensive human-centered transportation agenda. The organization is run by students and young people and focuses on three main areas: monitoring government transportation policy, raising public awareness about road safety and pedestrian-friendly design, and representing the interests of student groups in transportation decision-making. Its guiding principle is "human-centered transportation" (人本交通), and its stated goal is to ensure that everyone can return home safely. As of its founding, it operates as a civil-society advocacy group in Taiwan.
