The Archilife Research Foundation（ARF）has long sponsored the Taiwan Society of Sustainable Built Environment（TSSBE）and has participated in Taiwan’s sustainable building promotion and symbiotic environment-related academic and practical international exchanges. The BEYOND 2020 Conference held in Sweden in mid-June 2020 was postponed due to COVID-19. Through the sponsor’s replanning, online international conference was held from November 2~4, 2020. In order to ensure Archilife members also participated in conference and obtained the latest information on international sustainability, ARF Secretary General Huang Chin-ying actively provided assistance in the provision of the video conference venue, equipment, costs, etc, after TSSBE Secretary General Li Yen-yi pushed for the video location from the organizer.

Towards the end of today’s video conference, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying pointed out to the participants that in the face of intensifying climate change, other than COVID-19, human society is also under the constant threat of various emerging diseases. Therefore, conferences convened through video conferencing will become the main form of international conferences in the future.
