As part of WP4 Taiwan’s civil society engagement, three expert surveys were conducted to examine how legal professionals, medical service providers, and civic tech communities evaluated Taiwan’s COVID-19 response. Each survey included demographic questions, general assessments of pandemic governance, and field-specific issues.

One survey focused specifically on healthcare workers. Early in the pandemic, healthcare personnel were designated as “epidemic prevention warriors” by the Central Epidemic Command Center. In the name of protection, they were temporarily prohibited from traveling abroad without prior approval—raising concerns about restrictions on freedom of movement and lack of clear legal basis.
