Chiu Hsien-chih — Attorney and social activist. Born in Chushan Township, Chiayi County, he attended Chiayi Senior High School, earned his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in law from National Taipei University, and a Master of Laws from Heidelberg University in Germany, where he is currently a Ph.D. candidate in law.
Growing up in a rural environment and deeply empathetic to the hardships of the lower and middle classes, he has always motivated and practiced himself with the belief that "those with professional knowledge should go and help those who are struggling." After returning to Taiwan in 2011, he joined the legal defense team for the Cheng Hsing-tse case. At the end of 2012, he organized the pro bono legal team for the plant-closure workers' case, showing solidarity with the nationwide plant-closure workers' protests. He subsequently actively participated as pro bono counsel in cases such as the Cheng Hsing-tse case, the Hung Chung-chiu case, the Dapu shoe-throwing case, the Yuanli anti-wind-turbine case, and the Lishan veteran farmer case, and was also a member of the pro bono legal defense team for the 2014 Sunflower Student Movement.
