One-Forty is a non-profit organization initiated in Taiwan with a focus on migrant workers from Southeast Asia. We provide entrepreneurial support and related resources to help the migrant workers return to their home countries, and start their own businesses in Southeast Asia. We hope the initiative can improve the economic and social problems structurally rooted in their families, while developing their confidence and self-awareness.
In the meantime, One-Forty also takes cultural events to the street to enhance the mutual understanding and acceptance between the Taiwanese society and migrant workers from Southeast Asia. We hope such actions can help the migrant workers blend into society, while enhancing the civil competence and real international perspectives of the Taiwanese people.
One-Forty believes Taiwan would no longer have sweatshops filled with migrant labor, but an ideal world that helps the migrant workers to realize their dreams. They don't have to submit to fate anymore. They can be the change of their own lives.
