"The Hero's Journey" is the subject of this year's photography contest. In their own families as well as for the country as a whole, migrant workers are unsung heroes who bring economic benefits. Migrant workers in Taiwan are the unsung heroes who support the country's labor force and deal with the requirements of the aging population. The winner from the previous year's contest, an Indonesian caregiver, Windi, said that joining the photography contest is not just for the chance to take home the cash award, but also to give voice to depict photographs that are impossible to describe in words.
