Daren Township (Chinese: 達仁鄉; pinyin: Dárén Xiāng; Wade–Giles: Ta-jen Hsiang) is a mountain indigenous township in Taitung County, Taiwan. The main population is the Paiwan people of the Taiwanese aborigines.

History

In 2012, Daren, along with Wuqiu Township in Kinmen County (Quemoy), was proposed by the Ministry of Economic Affairs as the candidate of the new disposal site of nuclear waste after the Lanyu Storage Site in Orchid Island, Taitung County. This proposal however received heavy objection from the local Wuqiu residents.

The township comprises six villages: Anshuo, Nantan, Senyong, Sinhua, Taiban and Tuban.

The South-Link Highway passes through Daren Township, intersecting Highway 26 at Ansuo.
