異常胎兒家庭的全人醫療，以及胎兒醫學人才的培育，一直是本會長期重點發展的方向。

2023年，我們串聯醫療與媒體界具有共同理念的夥伴，共同發起「拯救胎兒計劃」（Saving Life Before Birth），聚焦胎兒異常與少子化等重要議題，透過社會倡議、公共論壇等方式，提升社會對胎兒醫學與異常胎兒家庭需求的理解與關注。

2024年，為培育具國際視野的胎兒醫學人才，並將異常胎兒家庭全人醫療的理念與模式推展至海外，本會開始提供獎學金，招募兩年期全職「國際胎兒醫學臨床研究Fellow」（International Clinical Research Fellowship in Fetal Medicine），透過臨床、研究與國際交流，培養能將胎兒醫學專業與全人照護理念帶回不同國家的醫療人才。（介紹請參見下方影片）

2026年，本會進一步與禾閎廣告ESG公益行銷倡議團隊及瑟鎂科技合作推動「愛，勇敢啟航」×「拯救胎兒計劃」專案，獲得張榮發基金會捐贈新臺幣300萬元，其中100萬元作為國際醫護人員來台灣短期研修之獎學金。這份支持，不只是對拯救胎兒計畫的肯定，更讓台灣的醫療專業與公益理念，有機會透過人才培育、國際交流與全人醫療的實踐，走向更多國家，陪伴更多異常胎兒家庭。

從社會倡議、到人才培育、再到國際交流，我們期待讓「Saving Life Before Birth」不只是一句口號，而是可以持續向前、跨越國界的實踐。

Providing holistic care for families facing fetal abnormalities and cultivating talent in the field of fetal medicine have long been key priorities for our organization.

In 2023, we united like-minded partners from the medical and media sectors to launch the「Saving Life Before Birth」 initiative. Focusing on critical issues such as fetal abnormalities and declining birth rates, we aim to raise public awareness and understanding regarding fetal medicine and the needs of affected families through social advocacy and public forums.

In 2024, to cultivate fetal medicine professionals with a global perspective and to extend the concept and model of holistic care for families expecting fetuses with anomalies to the international stage, the Association launched a scholarship program for a two-year, full-time 「International Clinical Research Fellowship in Fetal Medicine.」 Through a combination of clinical practice, research, and international exchange, the program aims to train medical professionals capable of bringing expertise in fetal medicine and the philosophy of holistic care back to their respective countries. (Please refer to the video below for an introduction.)

In 2026, the Association further collaborated with the Horizon Advertising ESG public service marketing team and Surgmate Technology to advance the「Love. Courage. Set Sail」X「Saving Life Before Birth Project」We received a donation of NT$3 million from the Chang Yung-Fa Foundation, with NT$1 million designated as scholarships for international medical professionals to undertake short-term training in Taiwan. This support serves not only as an endorsement of the「Saving Life Before Birth Project」but also enables Taiwan’s medical expertise and philanthropic vision to reach more nations—and support more families facing fetal abnormalities—through talent development, international exchange, and the practice of holistic care.

From social advocacy and talent development to international exchange, we aspire to ensure that「Saving Life Before Birth」is more than just a slogan; we aim to make it a practice that moves steadily forward and transcends national borders.
