Taiwan Electromagnetic Radiation Hazard Protection and Control Association, TEPCA

Taiwan Electromagnetic Radiation Hazard Protection and Control Association, TEPCA


» Founding History

Since 2005, Taiwan Environmental Protection Union and its local branches have built a network assisting individual cases afflicted by electromagnetic radiation hazard. Prof. Chen Jiau-Hua, former president of TEPU and coordinator of the victim’s unit of electromagnetic radiation hazard, recognizing the necessity of establishing a functional organization to further promote electromagnetic radiation hazard protection which would lead to legislate standard practice and advocate environmental alertness, decided to found “Taiwan Electromagnetic Radiation Hazard Protection and Control Association.”

The Association is a legalized non-profit organization. Its purpose is to connect the victims of electromagnetic radiation hazard, self-relief organizations, non-governmental organizations, individuals and groups aware of the risk, to work together towards electromagnetic radiation hazard protection and relevant legislation. Through education, research, caring for victims, protection and control of public hazard, its goal is to establish an electromagnetic radiation-safe environment and to secure every individual’s right to living a healthy life.


» Mission Statements

1、Establish actions and items of electromagnetic radiation hazard protection.

2、Protect and maintain an electromagnetic radiation-safe environment; Promote a healthy society and quality of life.

3、Facilitate education in electromagnetic radiation hazard and research in public hazard.

4、Provide care and assistance to victims of electromagnetic radiation hazard.

5、Work closely with legislation to promote electromagnetic radiation hazard protection and control.

6、Encourage interactions between international research on electromagnetic radiation safety and collaborations of international organizations on its protection and control.


» Towards Legislation

It is standard practice amongst countries to protect and control electromagnetic radiation hazard according to the precautionary principle. However, Taiwan not only tolerates inappropriately regulated construction of sub terrain high-voltage wiring by Taiwan Power Company, it also fails in resolving the problems of electromagnetic radiation hazard and continues to misuse the safety standard.


According to study, the risk of health from electromagnetic radiation hazard is evident. We strive to protect our residents from any electromagnetic radiation hazard. We must be pro-active in establishing stricter practice to prevent and control any form of electromagnetic radiation hazard that would harm our health and the health of the environment.
