PRESERVING NATURE, UNITING CULTURES
The choice of the theme "Sustainable Life" for Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan, inspired by the central theme "Saving Lives," is based on the interconnectedness between environmental preservation, the promotion of sustainable tourism, and the appreciation of cultural diversity.
This choice aims to inspire the creation of a society that not only survives but thrives in balance with nature, creating a lasting future for all. The harmony between cultures is essential, reflecting peaceful coexistence among people from different backgrounds.
This virtuous cycle creates global awareness about the need to ensure environmental conservation, not only for the present but as a legacy for future generations. The theme and sub-theme result from the harmony of five pillars: Sustainable life, sustainable global harmony, cocoa and coffee plantations as sustainable beacons, transformative tourism and conservation for future generations.
