與最貧困者同行：台北巴黎反貧窮運動跨國學習與在地轉化
作者：朱冠蓁（貧窮人的台北策展人、人生百味文化建構協會秘書長）
摘要：
本篇文章為「向貧窮者學習行動聯盟」於2024 年2 月、集結14 個多元貧窮議題組織赴法國巴黎第四世界運動（International Movement ATD Fourth World）總部進行的深度交流與參訪紀錄。本文旨在探討一個核心問題：當貧窮經驗者從被動的服務接受者，轉變為議題的行動者時，將如何推動社會變革，並挑戰系統性排除的困境。藉由此跨國經驗與台灣社會的貧窮脈絡進行對話，指出台灣反貧窮運動之路的困境與機會。
本文章節共分三部分：首先，論述第四世界運動的核心理念及組織架構，同時帶出台灣貧窮者於制度及社會層面的困境。其次，探討其將理念轉化為具體實踐的方法，共摘錄五日參訪的其中三項行動，分別為培力經驗者發聲的「平民大學」、建立貧窮主體歷史的「記憶中心」，以及結合循環經濟與合作經濟的包容性職場「活業中心」。最後反思這些跨國經驗於台灣在地化的挑戰，並提出具體行動指引。

A Journey with the Most Impoverished: Transnational Learning and Local Transformation in the Taiwan-France Anti-Poverty Movement
Author：A-yong Chu（Curator, Poor People’s Taipei Exhibition Secretary-General, Do You A Flavor）
Abstract：
This article documents a profound exchange and visit by the “Action Alliance to Learn from People in Poverty”, a coalition of 14 diverse organizations working on poverty-related issues, to the headquarters of the International Movement ATD Fourth World in Paris in February 2024.It aims to explore a core question: how does the transformation of people with lived experience of poverty from passive service recipients into active agents of change drive social reform and challenge systemic exclusion? This transnational encounter is situated within Taiwan’s own poverty context, highlighting both the obstacles and opportunities facing its anti-poverty movement.
The article is structured in three parts. First, it discusses the core philosophy and organizational framework of the ATD Fourth World Movement, while also addressing the institutional and social challenges faced by people in poverty in Taiwan. Second, it explores how ATD translates its philosophy into practice by highlighting three key initiatives from the five-day visit: the “Folk University”, which empowers people with lived experience to speak out; the “Joseph Wresinski Memory and Research Center”, which builds a historical narrative centered on the voices of the impoverished; and the “Working and Learning Together” Center, an inclusive workplace integrating circular economy principles with a cooperative model. Finally, the article reflects on the challenges of localizing these global practices in Taiwan and offers concrete, action-oriented recommendations for practitioners.
