Shenglin Elijah Chang Shenglin Elijah Chang received her Ph.D. at UC Berkeley in 2000. Born in Taiwan, she has developed and implemented innovative approaches to public involvement in environmental issues through civic arts, community design participation, rural revitalization, and social-political activism. After living and teaching in the United States for two decades (1991-2009), she is Professor and the former Director in the Graduate Institute of Building and Planning at National Taiwan University. She has also established the New Ruralism Research and Development Center. More importantly, she serves as the director for Social Innovation of the Stanley Wang’s Design School at the National Taiwan University since 2015. As the cofounder of
the Sanpuku Satoyama Tea, Shenglin recently received the 4th National Intelligence Award for the social impacts of her efforts of the rural revitalization. Shenglin Elijah received the 2004 CELA Award of Recognition for Excellence in Teaching, Research and Service in Landscape Architecture (CELA – Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture). Her book, The Global Silicon Valley Home: Lives and Landscapes within Taiwanese American Trans-Pacific Culture, has recently been published by the Stanford University Press (2006). Dr. Chang’s scholarship focuses on the transformations of Asian and Latino immigrants’ lifestyles and identities in the suburban DC-Maryland region. Her recent essays include: “Seeing Landscape through Cross-cultural Eyes” in Landscape Journal 24-2: 05; “Home here, Home There” in Landscape Review 9(1); and, “Breaking Silicon Silence” in Challenging the Chip (Temple 2006). She has edited and co-authored two books (translated into Chinese) with Randy Hester: Living Landscape and A Theory for Building Community. Shenglin’s teaching focuses on issues related to landscape and identity across world cultures. With the support from the Freeman Foundation, she established modules and courses in partnership with faculty and students in East Asia, including Taiwan, China, and Japan. Since 2008, Dr. Chang’s new research and professional agenda is to establish the New Ruralism Research and Develop Center. The Center commits to search for socio-culturally and ecologically sustainable methods to revitalize rural areas, especially focusing on aging issues in the countryside of the East Asian region. Shenglin has studied rural development cases in America, Costa Rica, China and Japan. After return to Asian in 2009, Dr. Chang has been devoting her time in rural China, especially in Shanxi and Sichuan. She will continue this mission and call for the dream of the Asian rural Renaissance in the 21st Century. Selected Journal Articles (2012-2017) Chen Ting WU, Shenglin Elijah Chang (2017, Oct).
