To implement Article 17 of the Basic Law for New Residents, which guarantees media access rights for new residents, the government encourages media to produce programs in new resident languages and cultures, offering rewards and subsidies. The Ministry of the Interior will hold the "New Resident Children’s Multicultural Training Camp" from July 14 to 16, 2025. The camp aims to enhance new resident children's cultural literacy and professional skills through media literacy and digital application courses, fostering multicultural development.

Participants will visit media institutions and produce creative Podcast programs, using sound to convey new resident cultures and personal identities. Course results will be presented at the final presentation, and a competition will be held, where the top three groups will receive a NT$6,000 gift voucher.
