雲林縣虎尾鎮中山路及其周邊場域

自1906年大日本製糖株式會社於虎尾設立糖廠起，虎尾由五間厝小村逐漸發展為糖業重鎮。糖廠不僅推動農工經濟，也形塑了地方社會與文化風貌。然而隨產業轉型、糖業衰退與城鎮擴張，傳統糖業文化逐漸消逝。為回應此挑戰，本計畫聚焦虎尾中山路及其延伸場域，提出三大實踐議題：一、共構在地知識，守護並轉化糖業文化資產；二、協力參與經營，促進文化參與與經濟活化；三、共同學習展演，豐富社區文化生活並強化認同感，推動虎尾多元且永續的發展。

本計畫以生態博物館為概念，將虎尾糖都核心區打造為「活的糖業文化動態場域」，綜合考量如下：

• 好糖研發與產業轉型：針對甘蔗、糖業與地方文化進行教育推廣，促進傳統糖產業向糖文創產業轉型，研發好糖技術，提升地方經濟，推動文創與旅遊產業發展。
• 文化紮根與轉譯：作為糖業歷史文化研究基地，盤點場域內的文化資源，建立數位典藏系統。透過展示與活動，將該場域打造成動態呈現糖業歷史與文化的公共平台，吸引觀眾參觀與互動，讓糖業文化成為大眾共同記憶。

本期計畫針對文化紮根與轉譯、好糖研發與產業轉型兩大功能，提出「好糖技術共研」和「糖都地景共創」兩大分項計畫。

Since 1906, when the Dainippon Sugar Manufacturing Company established a sugar factory in Huwei, the town has gradually transformed from the small village of Wujianjhuo into a prominent hub of the sugar industry. The sugar factory not only drove agricultural and industrial development but also shaped the local social and cultural landscape. However, with industrial restructuring, the decline of the sugar industry, and urban expansion, the traditional sugar industry culture has gradually faded. In response to these challenges, this project focuses on Zhongshan Road in Huwei and its surrounding areas, proposing three key action themes:
1. Co-Constructing Local Knowledge – Safeguarding and transforming the cultural assets of the sugar industry.
2. Collaborative Management and Participation – Fostering cultural participation and revitalizing the local economy.
3. Co-Learning and Performance – Enriching community cultural life and strengthening identity to promote Huwei’s diverse and sustainable development.
Under the concept of an ecomuseum, the project aims to turn the core area of Huwei’s Sugar Capital into a “living dynamic site of sugar industry culture,” with comprehensive considerations that include:
1. Good Sugar R&D and Industrial Transformation – Promoting educational outreach related to sugarcane, the sugar industry, and local culture; facilitating the transformation of the traditional sugar industry into a cultural and creative sugar economy; developing good sugar technologies; revitalizing the local economy; and advancing cultural and tourism industries.
2. Cultural Rooting and Translation – Serving as a research base for the history and culture of the sugar industry by cataloging the area’s cultural resources and building a digital archive system. Through exhibitions and interactive events, the project will transform the area into a dynamic public platform that showcases the history and culture of the sugar industry, drawing in visitors and making the sugar industry culture part of a shared collective memory.
