張崑崙書院及霍英東珍禧書院:2024年傳統村落保護及鄉村振興研學活動(福建屏南縣前洋村)

為提升澳門學生對貢獻國家及服務社會的責任感與能力、響應國家鄉村振興戰略及傳統村落保護計劃、增進澳門學生對祖國國情,特別是對中國傳統村落保護及鄉村振興方面的認知及理解、以及促進內地與澳門青年學生的交流與友誼,澳門大學張崑崙書院及霍英東珍禧書院師生一行16人,於本學年2024年7月11日至17日,在復旦大學及當地政府的幫助下,在福建屏南縣前洋村開展傳統村落保護及鄉村振興研學活動。

 

位於福建山區的傳統村落 – 前洋村

 

澳門大學師生與復旦大學師生一起住在前洋村,每天清晨,在村民的指導下,學生們輪流去製作包子及準備早餐,陳紫詠同學在學習了製作包子的全過程後,感慨地說:“這是我包的最好吃的包子。” 同學們跟隨村民感受鄉村生活,和村民聊家常。在徒步走了一段以前村民外出的山村小道後,同學們不禁感慨:“身處山區的村落出行實在太困難了,以前村裡的農產品很難運出去銷售。” 同學們還在前洋村學習了2門復旦大學開設的《古村落的保護與開發》及《絲綢之路與古陶瓷外銷史》體驗式學習課程,並通過村落調查,因地制宜,嘗試為前洋村的保護與發展提出切實可行的行動建議。

 

學生感想:

陳葆慧:在此次關於鄉村振興與傳統村落保護的服務學習中,我真正地正視了一個嚴峻的現實:生活在偏遠的山間村落,其艱苦遠非言語所能盡述。

李欣遙:每一份微小的努力,都是为村民生活改善貢獻的一份力量。

羅添熙:國務院住建部村鎮司原司長董老師給我們授課時,提及中華文明根植於農耕文明,傳統村落是農耕文明的重要載體,守護傳統村落就是收獲中華民族的根和魂!這句話讓我久久不能忘懷!

劉浩楠:保護前洋村,也是保護我們的歷史和未來。

歐陽綺雯及王淦:讓人們認識及瞭解自己民族的傳統文化,‌增強人們的文化認同感,這是鄉村振興與古村落保護的意義所在。

莫衍鑌:老師們對歷史的敬畏和對真相的執著追求,詮釋了嚴謹治學和對知識的尊重。這種態度如同明燈,激勵我們在探索真理的路上,以最虔誠的心態去追求真實,傳承優秀文化遺產。

To enhance students’ sense of responsibility and ability to contribute to the country and to serve society, to respond to the national rural revitalization strategy and traditional village protection plan, to improve Macau students’ understanding of the national conditions, especially regarding the protection of traditional Chinese villages and rural revitalization, and to promote exchange and friendship between mainland and Macau youth, 16 students and staff from the Cheong Kun Lun College and the Henry Fok Pearl Jubilee College conducted a study tour on traditional village protection and rural revitalization in Qianyang Village, Pingnan County, Fujian Province, from July 11 to 17, 2024, with the assistance of Fudan University and the local government.

 

Qianyang Village – Traditional Village in the Mountain Area of Fujian

 

Students and staff from University of Macau and Fudan University stayed in Qianyang Village together. Every morning, under the guidance of villagers, students took turns making steamed buns and preparing breakfast. After learning the entire process of making steamed buns, student CHAN Chi Weng remarked emotionally, “This is the most delicious steamed bun I’ve ever made.

 

The students experienced rural life with the villagers and chatted with them about everyday matters. After walking a section of the mountain path that villagers used to take when leaving the village, students couldn’t help but express, “It’s really difficult to travel in and out of mountain villages. It’s hard for the village’s agricultural products to be transported out for sale in the past.”

 

The students also participated in two experiential learning courses offered by Fudan University: ‘Protection and Development of Ancient Villages’ and ‘The Silk Road and the History of Ancient Ceramic Exports’. Through village surveys and considering local conditions, students attempted to propose practical and feasible action recommendations for the protection and development of Qianyang Village.

 

Students’ Reflection

CHEN Baohui: In this service-learning experience, I truly faced a stark reality: the hardships of living in remote mountain villages are far beyond what words can fully describe.

LI Xinyao: Every small effort is a contribution towards improving the villagers’ lives.

LUO Tianxi: When Director Dong, the former head of the Village and Town Division of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the State Council, was teaching us, she mentioned that Chinese civilization is rooted in agricultural civilization, and traditional villages are important carriers of this agricultural civilization. Protecting traditional villages means preserving the roots and soul of the Chinese nation! These words left an unforgettable impression on me.

CHEN Aidan: Protecting Qianyang Village is also protecting our history and future.

AO Ieong I Man & WANG Kam: Enabling people to recognize and understand their own traditional culture, and strengthening people’s sense of cultural identity – this is one of the significances of rural revitalization and the protection of ancient villages.

MO Yanbin: Professors’ respect for history and their persistent pursuit of truth, has demonstrated a rigorous approach to scholarship and knowledge. This attitude serves as a guiding light, inspiring us on the path of exploring truth, to seek reality with the most sincere mindset, and to pass on excellent cultural heritage.
