(Central News Agency reporter Hsu Chih-wei, Taipei, 4th) National Taiwan University and the Swedish Trade and Invest Council jointly held the 'Dialogue with Nobel Special Exhibition,' which aims to convey the history and spirit of the Nobel Prize through multimedia materials, precious cultural relics, and interactive designs, hoping to inspire students' academic pursuit and persistent research.
National Taiwan University and the Swedish Trade and Invest Council jointly held the 'Dialogue with Nobel Special Exhibition - The Original Voice and Echoes of the Nobel Prize' and held the opening ceremony today. National Taiwan University President Chen Wen-chang, Academia Sinica President Liao Chun-chih, and Swedish Representative to Taiwan Helena Reitberger attended.
President Chen Wen-chang stated that the value of Nobel laureates lies not only in the award itself but more importantly in their profound contributions to human knowledge and civilization. Significant discoveries often come from long-term perseverance and the courage to challenge existing paradigms. He hopes that teachers and students can appreciate the historical context and spirit behind the Nobel Prize through the 'Taiwan Bridge Project' lecture series and exhibition, transforming it into inspiration for continuous research and academic pursuit.
President Liao Chun-chih mentioned that excellent scientific achievements stem from the courage to question authority and the experimental spirit of not fearing failure. The highest level of scientific achievement is not only about discovery itself but also demonstrates concern for humanity. Basic science is the driving force for innovation, and the humanistic spirit provides purpose, ethical direction, and social meaning. Scientific spirit and humanistic care must complement each other to respond to the challenges of the times.
Deputy Minister of Education Liu Kuo-wei pointed out that Taiwan and Sweden have a deep foundation for educational cooperation, with 110 academic agreements signed between the two sides. Sweden leads the world in scientific innovation, and the Nobel spirit is key to stimulating Taiwan's research energy. The Ministry of Education actively promotes high-level mutual visits and academic agreements between the two sides, and deepens partnerships with the world's top 100 universities through the National Key Fields International Cooperation Alliance.
Helena Reitberger shared that she once accompanied Nobel Literature Prize winner Jon Fosse to visit high schools for underprivileged students and witnessed how children living in difficult environments were deeply inspired by exposure to the Nobel spirit and displayed vitality. 'This is the power of the Nobel Prize.' The true value of the Nobel Prize lies in inspiring the next generation to explore their potential and aim high. She also hopes to pass on this asset to Taiwanese students through the special exhibition.
National Taiwan University explained that the special exhibition has three exhibition areas: 'Swedish Nobel Exhibition Area,' 'Taiwan Bridge Project,' and 'NTU Nobel Laureate Lecture Series.' Through multimedia materials from Sweden to Taiwan, precious cultural relics, and interactive designs, it guides visitors to engage in dialogue with the Nobel spirit. The exhibition runs from May 4 to May 28, inviting all sectors to join this cross-temporal knowledge dialogue. (Edited by Chang Ya-ching) 1150504
