2026 International Innovative Care Forum & Interactive Exhibition — Beyond Borders: Cultivating a Shared Care Ecosystem
—— When AI Meets Human Companionship: Reimagining Caregiving to Create a Shared Care Ecosystem for Families, Migrant Workers, and Healthcare
【Why This Event?】Taiwan is home to more than 220,000 migrant caregivers working in home and institutional care settings, providing strong support for countless families. We believe caregiving does not have to be an experience carried alone. On September 5th, 2026, The Garden of Hope Foundation and DBS Foundation's "Happier Caregivers, Healthier Seniors" Project will host its 2026 International Innovative Care Forum & Interactive Exhibition. The forum will focus on "Technology Application x Real-Person Companionship" to foster a more inclusive and sustainable shared care ecosystem for the elderly, migrant workers, and their families.
【Four Key Themes】
Transnational Policy Dialogue: Officials and expert representatives will explore policies to strengthen partnerships between migrant caregivers, families, and care systems
AI Technology × Human Psychological Support: Introduce the “Happier Caregivers, Healthier Seniors” Project to discover how AI can help reduce the burden of caregiving while complementing empathetic human companionship to strengthen caregivers’ psychological resilience
Expert Forum: Assistant Professor Carol Ma from Singapore University of Social Sciences, Dr. Wen-Chuin Hsu from Taiwan Alzheimer's Disease Association, Dr. Yin-Chao Chang from Dr. Enjoy’s Clinic, and Taiwan Shiseido Group will share insights into dementia care, community-based care in rural communities, and beauty empowerment.
10+ Immersive Interactive Experiences: Including stations for the iCue smart mattress technology for fall detection and prevention, AI companions, halal-friendly plant-based meals, multilingual at-home dental care, local aromatherapy experiences, and organization support
