Taiwan is experiencing a surge in its vegan movement, evolving from historically rooted religious vegetarianism into a contemporary force for animal ethics and climate action. Driven largely by younger generations, this shift is actively reshaping the nation’s food systems and promoting a plant-based lifestyle. Local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and digital platforms are central to this evolution, facilitating advocacy and community building. Advocates in Taiwan are not only redefining meatless diets but also engaging in policy work to further their cause. This movement is contributing to Taiwan’s broader sustainability objectives and raising its profile on the international stage. The growth of the plant-based food sector in Taiwan is a direct result of this increasing awareness and demand.
