悉達多太子足跡尋蹤－歡慶518國際博物館日

Tracking Siddhartha’s Footprints—Celebrating International Museum Day

　　每年，佛陀紀念館慶祝國際博物館日（IMD）。今年國際博物館日的主題是「博物館致力於教育和研究」。這個主題凸顯博物館提供全方位教育體驗的重要功能，而國際博物館日的舉辦更推動著一個更自覺、可持續性、且更包容的世界。

　　自2020年以來，國際博物館日一直支持聯合國可持續發展目標的一系列目標。2024年將專注於以下目標：

　　目標4：優質教育－確保所有人享有包容和公平的優質教育，並促進終身學習機會。

　　目標9：工業、創新和基礎設施－建立強韌的基礎 設施，促進包容和可持續的工業化，並推動創新。

　　為配合2024年的國際博物館日主題，佛館用5個 “M”開頭的關鍵字來講述佛陀的一生。我們設計 了一個「悉達多太子足跡尋蹤」闖關活動。闖關遊 戲將帶領遊客沿著佛陀一生的旅程，循序漸進地探 索從佛陀的誕生、出家、成道、說法、涅槃。透過 這場活動的設計，我們期望以寓教於樂的方式讓參 與的民眾重新認識佛陀的一生。順利完成闖關的人 還可以獲取精美禮物喔！

　　Every year, the Buddha Museum celebrates the International Museum Day (IMD). The theme for this year's International Museum Day is "Museums for Education and Research." This theme underscores the pivotal role of cultural institutions in providing a holistic educational experience. This day pushes for a more conscious, sustainable, and inclusive world.

　　Each year from 2020, the International Museum Day supports a set of goals from the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. In 2024, the International Museum Day will focus on:

　　Goal 4: Quality Education – Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.

　　Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure – Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization, and foster innovation.

　　For IMD 2024, the Buddha Museum uses 5 keywords starting with "M" to relate the Buddha's life. A quiz is designed to trace the footprints of Siddhartha. This activity will lead visitors through the journey of the Buddha's life, gradually exploring from his birth, renunciation, enlightenment, teaching, to nirvana. Through the design of this activity, we hope to engage participants in an enjoyable and educational manner, allowing them to rediscover the life of Buddha. Participants who successfully complete can get a free gift!
