當移工不只是陌生人 When Migrant Workers Are No Longer Strangers｜陳凱翔 | Kai-Hsiang Chen | TEDxTaipei

在台灣，超過 70 萬名移工支撐著高齡長照與產業運作，但我們對移工的理解常停留在刻板標籤。十年的行動裡，陳凱翔看見：改變來自日常的小步——願意聆聽、願意理解、願意同行。他推動教育與跨文化交流，看見台灣社會推動多元的友善服務，看見移工回到家鄉後展開新的生命可能。當我們願意張開雙手，不只改變移工，台灣和世界也跟著改變。

In Taiwan, more than 700,000 migrant workers support elder care and key industries—yet public understanding often remains superficial. Over a decade of work, Kai-Hsiang Chen learned that change begins with small daily acts—listening, understanding, and walking alongside one another. Through education and cultural exchange, he has seen both Taiwanese communities and migrant workers open new possibilities for their own futures. When we choose to reach out, the change doesn’t stop with individuals—it reshapes society itself.
