Abstract

Ulaljuc Village is an indigenous tribe that was relocated and reconstructed due to a disaster, and mainly developed by the coffee industry for post-disaster industrial recovery. This study chose Ulaljuc Village as the research target, and collected data using various research methods, such as participant observation and in-depth interviews. The analysis results show that: (1) with assistance from government public sectors and non-profit organizations, and respect for the planning of indigenous peoples, the tribe was able to implement relocation reconstruction; (2) the development of the coffee industry enabled the tribesmen to gain economic profits and maintain the coffee plantation to effectively support the livelihood of tribesmen. Hopefully, the case in this study can serve as reference for the future industrial development of tribes or communities implementing post-disaster reconstruction.
