Thematic Report:Local creation: small towns, shopping streets, and entrepreneurship for returning youth

by Yu Hsuan Huang | 21-01-2020 14:06 recommendations 0

This book mainly explores the concept of local creation and the methodology of how young people in the field can invest in traditional industries and revive local industries. The reason why the term "local creation" appears in this society is because people's lives are getting longer and longer as medical development in various countries starts to be effective. Moreover, due to the pressure of living with a low number of children and the uneven development of urban and rural areas, young people in the countryside have to seek employment in surrounding metropolises.

Because of this, the traditional industries and the environment that were originally maintained in the local area will not be found by others. If the person with this technology perishes, the traditional industry will be cut off in this generation, and the local environment will also Will be out of order. So how to make young people return home to start a business is what this book tells us.

First of all, this book mentions the basic profits of all enterprises for their livelihood. Only when profits are at hand can social enterprises be promoted. Otherwise, there is no way to attract others to come back to the countryside to engage in business activities. So how do you set up a company in a rural area and generate profits?

The book mentions that you can start by helping local businesses solve problems. The example in Taiwan is that the county and city governments in various places will collect the title of the company and then organize a startup competition to help the company solve related problems. If the problem is solved, the problem-solving company will give funding or resource bets so that start-ups can have stable orders to maintain local livelihoods. This is the reason why young people can return to work in their hometown, and it is also the demand of the book at the beginning.

Then there is the conceptual division between the public sector and the private legal person. The public sector is also a consortium legal person. It often does not have financial pressure on funding. It can engage in more business than a private legal person who must compare with the baht. Space. However, since private legal persons are self-financing, they will focus on profits in matters rather than corporate social responsibility as the public sector.

So how to have both publicity and marketability is another point this book tells us. In the case of Taiwan, the public sector will provide private corporations with start-up funds and subsidies to engage in corporate responsibility, so that companies can replace equipment in the process and promote green procurement.

Finally, since the public sector cooperates with private legal persons, the most important thing is the local people. Is there any enthusiasm in this area to promote related matters. Because if the community is incomplete, no matter how good the idea is, no one will implement it. So how to get local people into relevant industries is what this book finally tells us, and it can also cultivate future micro-enterprises and self-employed people. Such as Japan's Kumamoto City and Aichi Prefecture.

    Hello Yu Hsuan

    Issue about youth leaving the countryside is also a very serious problem in Korea, where I live. From your report, I could learn about some key concepts related to this issue. Those examples you mentioned were big help to understand the idea of the book. Thank you for the introduction about the great book!

    Keep up with the great work!

    Hello,Lisa mentor

    The main environmental issue related to this book is that if the local environment is getting older, the local environmental maintenance will lose the quality it should have because the elderly gradually increase.

    For example, agriculture itself has the effect of soil and water conservation, but if no one is engaged in agriculture, the local environment will be out of order, and as described in another article, it will become industrial land for local governments. So how to get young people back to their hometown to engage in these industries is what this book tells us. And address related environmental maintenance, such as cleaning the ditch, keeping local animals from being hunted, and growing plants that are good for the environment.

    Hey Yu!
    This is your mentor Lisa.

    You have a very interesting book here although I cannot read it since it is in Chinese haha
    Inequality between urban and rural areas also a problem for Korea and thus the Korean government has been subsidizing different regions in the countryside so that they could attract more young people in the area. Also, many infrastructures have been built to induce these young entrepreneurs to start their business in those regions. I can't say it is really effective but trying is always important!

    Meanwhile, would you be kind enough to explain how this book might be related to environmental issues? It was a bit hard for me to find relevance!!

    But all the most, thanks for the great report:)
