We think this because animals are forced to live in the human world and aren’t getting the basic needs. One way to alleviate this problem may be to build more or improve on shelters to help separate dog and human territory. Therefore, the topic of animal and human territory overlap is one that would give us valuable information. We would use this information to suggest to the government to change the policy, particularly with respect to using more resources and funds towards animal welfare. =====Research Method===== Our group conducted this research by direct interviews and questionnaires. The subjects consisted of 74 respondents. 41 are female, 32 are male and 1 other. The subjects were individuals who work or live in Taipei City. =====Original Questionnaire 🦙===== {{:group3-title.png?400|}} ---- Name/名字: *optional {{::group3-smoldog.png?55|}} ---- Check the boxes according to what applies to you. 將你的答案勾在筐裡。 Gender/性別： Male/男性 ▢ Female/女性 ▢ Others/其他 ▢ Which age group are you in? 你的年龄段。 ▪10 - 15 ▢ ▪16 - 21 ▢ ▪22 - 37 ▢ ▪38 - 43 ▢ ▪44 - 49 ▢ ▪50+ ▢ Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? 你同意政府挪用更多的基礎建設經費去投資在收容流浪動物單位嗎？ Agree /同意 ▢ Disagree/ 不同意 ▢ Reason/原因 *optional ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Published by VIS Junior high Designed by VIS Junior high 2021/~/~ TEL - 02 2356 79787978 =====Data===== Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? Agrees that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters. {{:group3-agree.png?400|}} others 1 22 yes Disagrees and feels that we shouldn’t take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters. {{:group3-disagree.png?400|}} The totals of people that responded. {{:group3-total.png?400|}} =====Results===== - In the age range of 16 - 37, people are more likely to agree than disagree with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelters - In the age range 22 - 37, most females agree with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelters - In the age range of 38-43, males are more likely to agree with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelters - In the age range of 10-21, males are more likely to agree with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelters - Older people (38 and above)are more likely to disagree with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelter - Knowing that most people agree (93%) with this question we can plan to petition the government of the City of Taipei - Knowing that most people agree (93%) with this idea, it seems likely that donations can be collected to further work on this issue =====Discussion===== Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? {{::group3-table1.png?400|}} Few people disagree (7% of total respondents) with taking part of our infrastructure tax and spending it more on building animal shelters. These numbers suggest that the proposal of spending more tax dollars to build animal shelters would be popular and accepted by the general public. This means our next step should be to propose this information to the government. One way to allow the government to understand the attitude of the public would be to ask people to sign a petition. The petition would help express the widely held opinion of taking part of infrastructure tax and spending on animal shelter. Afterwards, our group would find out how we should suggest this to the government. Some ideas about how this would be done are to build animal shelters, animal adoption programs, animal friendly playgrounds or restaurants in the city. Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? {{::group3-table2.png?400|}} Knowing that most people agree (93%) with this idea we can spread this information on various forms of media to gain support for making actual policy changes in using taxes. Our team believes, if we can create marketing materials and put it out we will be able to spread the idea that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters better and more efficiently. From the information we already collected we can guess that most people agree and we will attempt to get people to sign a petition. Not only just posters, we could create a website, social media, etc. We could get support from other organizations to help spread this idea. Some organizations might be SPCA or ACT. We might attempt to get donations from boxes for people to put unwanted change in, and use these funds to create marketing material for this action. Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? {{::group3-table2.png?400|}} Knowing that most people agree (93%) with this idea we can ask our school to set up a non-profit organisation. Our research team believes, if we set up a non-profit organisation for this cause we can get more help from other people to support this idea. We are suggesting this because we currently don’t have enough to actually make a difference in government policy. Since we know that most people agree we can get signatures by setting up posters and possibly have our school make a non-profit organisation to help. This will help spread this idea that we should indeed take part of our infrastructure tax to build more animal shelters. =====Conclusion===== Our team believes that we should spread the results of our research and push policy makers to make changes. By setting up different advertisements so that we can inform people about our plan and what we want to achieve, we hope to gain more support in public opinion in making the change happen, which is to take a larger part of our infrastructure tax to build or improve on animal shelters. Our team believes the next step should be to start getting people to sign a petition to add pressure for the government to change it. We believe that by having the government build more shelters, the problem of overpopulated stray animals would see some improvement. This would also do much to help lessen the problem of the overlap in territory of humans and homeless animals. ======動物和人類居住環境重疊的研究====== =====主題選擇===== 我們的研究小組認為，動物/狗和人類居住環境重疊是一個大問題。 我們認為這是因為動物被迫生活在人類世界中並且無法獲得基本需求。 緩解這個問題的一種方法可能是建造更多或改進庇護所，以幫助分隔狗和人類的居住地。 因此，我們將利用調查的結果向政府建議改變政策，特別是在使用更多資源和資金用於動物福利方面。 =====研究方法===== 我們小組通過直接訪談和問卷調查進行了這項研究。 受試者由 74 名受訪者組成。 女性41人，男性32人，其他1人。對像是在台北市工作或生活的個人。 =====原始問卷調查🦙===== {{:group3-title.png?400|}} ---- Name/名字: *optional {{::group3-smoldog.png?55|}} ---- Check the boxes according to what applies to you. 將你的答案勾在筐裡。 Gender/性別： Male/男性 ▢ Female/女性 ▢ Others/其他 ▢ Which age group are you in? 你的年龄段。 ▪10 - 15 ▢ ▪16 - 21 ▢ ▪22 - 37 ▢ ▪38 - 43 ▢ ▪44 - 49 ▢ ▪50+ ▢ Do you agree that we should take part of our infrastructure tax and spend it more on building animal shelters? 你同意政府挪用更多的基礎建設經費去投資在收容流浪動物單位嗎？ Agree /同意 ▢ Disagree/ 不同意 ▢ Reason/原因 *optional ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Published by VIS Junior high Designed by VIS Junior high 2021/~/~ TEL - 02 2356 79787978 =====數據===== 您是否同意我們應該承擔基礎設施稅的一部分，並將其更多地用於建造動物收容所？ 同意我們應該承擔基礎設施稅的一部分，並將其更多地用於建造動物收容所 {{::group3-agreec.png?400|}} 其他 1 同意 22 不同意並且感覺我們不應該承擔我們的基礎設施稅，而是將更多的錢花在建造動物收容所 {{:group3-disagreec.png?400|}} 響應的總人數 {{:group3-totalc.png?400|}} =====結果===== - 在 16 到 37 歲的年齡段，人們更有可能同意而不是反對我們的基礎設施稅，並將更多的錢用於建造動物收容所 - 在 22 至 37 歲的年齡範圍內，大多數女性同意承擔我們的基礎設施稅，並將更多的錢用於建造動物收容所 - 在 38-43 歲的年齡範圍內，男性更可能同意將我們的基礎設施稅，並將更多的錢用於建造動物收容所 - 在 10-21 歲的年齡段，男性更可能同意承擔我們的基礎設施稅，並將更多的錢用於建造動物收容所 - 老年人(38歲及以上)比較不同意徵收我們的基礎設施稅並將其更多地用於建造動物收容所 - 知道大多數人（93%）同意這個問題，我們可以計劃向台北市政府請願 - 知道大多數人 (93%) 同意這個問題，我們可以計劃如何獲得捐款 =====討論===== 你同意政府挪用更多的基礎建設經費去投資在收容流浪動物單位嗎? {{:group3-table1c.png?400|}} 很少有人不同意（佔受訪者總數的 7%）同意承擔我們的基礎設施稅，並將其更多地用於建造動物收容所。 這些數字表明，花費更多稅收來建造動物收容所的提議會受到公眾的歡迎和接受。 這意味著我們的下一步應該是向政府提出這些信息。 讓政府了解公眾態度的一種方法是請人們簽署請願書。 請願書將有助於表達廣泛持有的觀點，即參與基礎設施稅和動物收容所支出。 之後，我們小組會找出我們應該如何向政府提出這個建議。 關於如何做到這一點的一些想法是在城市建立動物收容所、動物收養計劃、動物友好遊樂場或餐館。 你同意政府挪用更多的基礎建設經費去投資在收容流浪動物單位嗎？ {{:group3-table2c.png?400|}} 知道大多數人（93%）同意這個想法，我們可以在各種形式的媒體上傳播這些信息，以獲得支持在使用稅收方面做出實際的政策變化。 我們的團隊相信，如果我們能夠製作營銷材料並將其發佈出來，我們將能夠傳播我們應該承擔部分基礎設施稅的想法，並將更多資金用於更好、更有效地建造動物收容所。 從我們已經收集的信息中，我們可以猜測大多數人都同意，我們將嘗試讓人們簽署請願書。 不僅僅是海報，我們還可以創建網站、社交媒體等。我們可以獲得其他組織的支持來幫助傳播這個想法。 有些組織可能是 SPCA 或 ACT。 我們可能會嘗試從盒子中獲得捐款，供人們放入不需要的零錢，並使用這些資金為該行動製作營銷材料。 你同意政府挪用更多的基礎建設經費去投資在收容流浪動物單位嗎？ {{:group3-table2c.png?400|}} 知道大多數人（93%）同意這個想法，我們可以要求我們學校成立一個非營利組織 我們的研究團隊相信，如果我們為此成立一個非營利組織，我們可以從其他人那裡得到更多的幫助來支持這個想法。 我們建議這樣做是因為我們目前沒有足夠的資金來實際改變政府政策。 因為我們知道大多數人都同意我們可以通過設置海報來獲得簽名，並且可能讓我們的學校成立一個非營利組織來提供幫助。 這將有助於傳播我們確實應該承擔一部分基礎設施稅來建造更多動物收容所的想法。 =====結論===== 我們的團隊認為我們應該傳播我們的研究成果並推動決策者做出改變。 通過設置不同的廣告，讓人們了解我們的計劃和我們想要實現的目標，我們希望在實現變革方面獲得更多的輿論支持，也就是將我們的基礎設施稅的更大一部分用於建設或 改善動物收容所。 我們的團隊認為下一步應該是開始讓人們簽署請願書，以增加政府改變它的壓力。 我們相信，通過政府建造更多的收容所，流浪動物過多的問題會有所改善。 這也將有助於減少人類和無家可歸動物在居住環境上重疊的問題。 research-topic-spending.txt Last modified: 2021/06/30 06:41by scott.chen Log In
