To mark the 20th anniversary of the Tzu Chi Teachers Association, nearly 1,500 teachers and Tzu Chings from 16 different countries returned to Hualien to attend the Global Annual Educational Conference, in hopes of absorbing both wisdom and dharma.

5. 教聯回顧 The history of TC Teachers Association

The establishment of the Tzu Chi Teachers Association dates back to 1990, when Taiwan”s stock market crashed causing disarray in society. At that time, Tzu Chi volunteer, Chen Meiyi(陳美羿), who was an elementary school teacher, met a taxi driver who had some quite negative impressions of teachers, and she was inspired to make a change. Chen decided to share Tzu Chi”s values and humanitarian spirit with teachers from around the island. Two years later, on July 23, 1992, the Tzu Chi Teachers Association was founded. Today, in celebration its 20th anniversary, we meet a few of the very first teachers that helped established the Association.

慈濟教聯會成立的因緣，要回到1990年而說起，當時台灣股市面臨泡沫化，社會動盪不安，慈濟志工 陳美羿 ，當時是國小老師，在搭計程車時碰到一位司機，對老師有強烈的偏見，於是陳美羿決定要做些改變，她決定要分享慈濟的價值與理念給全省的老師，兩年後，於1992年的7月23日，慈濟教師聯誼會正式成立了，如今 走入二十周年，我們來認識當時幾位，協助成立教聯會的老師。

6. 教聯鄭春梅 Kaohsiung Tzu Chi Teachers Association
Next, we meet Kaoshiung Tzu Chi Teachers Association member, Zheng Chunmei(鄭春梅), who has actively educated new immigrants at the Gangshan(岡山) Tzu Chi Grounds since 2004. To her students, Chumei is a mother figure, and Tzu Chi is their second home.
接下來，今天我們認識高雄區教聯會老師鄭春梅，從2004年承擔起岡山新住民的蕙質蘭心成長班的老師，對他的學生來說，春梅師姊就像他們的母親，慈濟就像他們在台灣的娘家。

7. 360木造船藝 A legacy for future generations
In Pingtung”s Donggang(東港) Township lives Hong Quanrui(洪全瑞)---one of Taiwan”s foremost shipbuilders. Many of Taiwan”s modern day dragon boats have been designed and built by Hong, but his real claim to fame, are his model ships which range from a 2000 year old Roman galley, to a 17th century Swedish warship. Despite their popularity, the ships are not for sale, but have been loaned to the Donggang Museum, where Hong hopes to bring more tourists to Pingtung, and also preserve the art of wood shipbuilding for future generations.

在屏東東港鎮民的洪全瑞，是台灣的造船先驅，國內許多龍舟都是委託他設計建造，但他真正厲害的是打造模型船，例如兩千年前的羅馬戰船或是17世紀的瑞典戰艦，雖然模型船備受歡迎，但都是非賣品，長期在屏東東港博物館展出，洪全瑞希望藉此鼓勵遊客參觀東港，同時保存木造船藝，傳承給下一代。
