Expo 2025 in Japan is set to take the world by surprise with its innovations and focus on humanity at a time of sombre global challenges.
The Osaka-Kansai Expo’s designers presented the global resonance thematic project to the world’s elite at a special event during the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Outlined as “a powerful movement of hope, inspiration and progress for the well-being of all humankind”, the Japan Expo in Osaka will open in April to spread its theme titled “Resonance of Lives” around the world.
The organisers say the project will “provide an experience of creating a new world together, in the midst of this profound turning point.”
“The future in a resonance of lives” is the central idea of the Expo, to connect the world to diverse pillars of life, “working toward the future, resonating with other persons, with nature, and with the world.
Professor Miyata Hiroaki is a global thinker whose vision of society is at the heart of the Expo 2025 concept. Through his research in social reform, he promotes a new vision of society, resonant with diversity, where “each individual shines through experiencing that world with others”
Professor Miyata outlined his vision for the Expo and its core theme of a “resonant society” in an interview with Euronews at the main Japanese event within the World Economic Forum in Davos.
The organisers of Expo 2025 call the thematic project as “a laboratory for a future society”, where visitors will not only view exhibits, but also join the vision of co-creating a future society in – as the organisers outline it – “a place where the world’s knowledge such as cutting-edge technology will be brought together, used to create new ideas, and shared, all to help resolve global issues facing mankind.”
