OURS HISTORY

一九九六年,一群年輕、充滿著抱負與活力的台灣同學,在中國對台灣飛彈恐嚇事件的激發之下定發起一個「另類的」台灣學生組織在英國。想法是去鼓勵在此地的台灣同學,從我們所辦的活動中多去了解台灣的文化及歷史。這團體很直接的被取名為「英國台灣同學會」(TAIWANESE STUDENT ASSOCIATION IN THE U.K.),如此就這麼誕生啦!

顧名思義,英國台灣同學會是以台灣為名,強調台灣的學生組織.以台灣為名亦使英國台灣同學會於英國校園中具較佳的接受度,更利於台灣同學在校園中進行外交.

此外,英國台灣同學會的活動是動態的,較具雙向溝通的優點,更易促進會員間的友誼.不具任何政治黨派色彩亦使英國台灣同學會能廣納具有前衛,自由派思潮的同學.強調理性與科學的態度更使英國台灣同學會能跟隨時代的脈動迅速的調整它在留英同學中的角色.

英國台灣同學會的活動是多樣性的. 過去的活動多采多姿的活動包括:

口碑保證的 倫敦台灣小吃園遊會

知識性的

台灣時事討論 二二八紀念會 台灣作家讀書會 電影欣賞 台灣人權現況

娛樂連誼性的

溜冰活動 躲避球大賽 新年聚會 聖誕Party

以及自發性的

集集大地震募款活動 向中國說不,抗議江澤明來訪英國 等
