According to him, the city government, AIT, and TaiwanWSA collaborate to promote a variety of women's sports and gender equality in sports. The City Government sponsored TaiwanWSA in translating its gender education materials into seven languages, including English, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai, and Filipino, to spread awareness of gender equality in sports.

Gender equality is practiced not only on campus, but also in the community, and more overseas friends of Taiwan have discussed the subject of gender equality in sports.
