Professor Wu Shu-Yun has dedicated many years to protective services, child and youth welfare, young carers, and out-of-home care. Guided by her belief in “responding to social needs through research and advancing institutional innovation through professional expertise,” she bridges academia and practice, closely connecting frontline experience with policymaking. Her work continues to provide vital momentum for the development of Taiwan’s social work profession and the advancement of its social welfare system.
NCNU President Wu Tung-Hsing stated that Professor Wu’s receipt of the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s Professional Medal was well deserved. Her long-standing, selfless commitment to protective services and child and youth welfare embodies NCNU’s core spirit of “serving society through professional expertise and changing the world through education.” He emphasized that Professor Wu has not only achieved outstanding results in academic research and policy advancement, but has also demonstrated great dedication to institutional research and teaching, making her an exemplary role model for students seeking to apply their expertise to social issues.
Reflecting on her work, Professor Wu said, “Over the years, I have continued to devote myself to issues concerning young carers, trauma-informed practice, protective services, and out-of-home care for children and young people, hoping to build a service system that places greater emphasis on safety, relationships, respect, and recovery. I would especially like to thank the research partners who have walked alongside me, as well as the countless frontline social workers. Through our collective efforts, many issues once left unspoken have gradually gained society’s attention, giving the system an opportunity to move forward, step by step. I will continue along this path, even knowing how lonely it can be.”
