在二十一世紀的臺灣，由於都市化風潮與商業發展的趨勢，人口大量往都市發展與集中，造成農村人口外移嚴重，剩餘人口多以老年人為主；農村沒落導致農村整體發展延宕，公部門資源的缺乏及一昧爭相複製亮點社區的經營模式更讓臺灣農村特色逐漸沒落。臺灣政府部門希望藉由不同的計劃來推動農村再生工作，除了在西元2011年所推動農村再生計畫外，該年度也同時推動大專生洄游農村計畫。西元2014年暑假弘光科技大學文化創意產業系的五位二年級女同學參與由水土保持局舉辦的第四屆大專生洄游農村競賽，捨棄傳統的社區營造標準流程，同學們用她們的眼光和方式來決定發展主軸與目標，嘗試以非空間專業科系的角度定義如何去活化一個聚落的人與物。本文將詳述整個大專生洄游計畫的計畫目的、過程與結果，希望由差異化過程的觀察反省與對話交流中獲得創新的態度信念，並將其整合運用於未來大專生與農村對話時提供新情境的創新設計、解決方案或行動策略之參考。

The trends of urbanization and commercial development in 21st century Taiwan has led people to migrate to urban areas seeking better opportunities. Rural areas therefore have lost the vast majority of their younger members; what remains is mostly an aging population. These rural villages suffer continuing recessions and lack of input and attention from authorities. Therefore, authorities were urged to implement new programs for improving rural renewal. In addition to the rural renewal master plan of 2011, a plan aimed at encouraging college-aged youth to move to rural areas was promoted concomitantly. As part of this The Taiwan government’s Soil and Water Conservation Bureau held a contest in 2014, titled “Touch Rural Village – How Touching.” Six sophomores from Hung Kuang University’s Department of Cultural and Creative Industries participated. These students did not adopt the conventional community development model, but employed an alternative based on their non-spatial training background to determine a new developmental axis and target for reactivating the relationship between people and the village environment. This report illustrates the targets, processes, and results of “Touch Rural Village – How Touching”. The observations and conversations from this differential procedure are expected to provide innovative concepts and generate a future integrative application, which will contribute to a premised conversation in terms of creative design solutions and strategies.
