MOTTAINAI
Lifestyles in the tropics
Nearly half a century has gone by since alarms were first sounded of the planet's "limits" and the need for environmentally sustainable economic activity. With the COVID-19 pandemic, we are now required to balance health/lives and economic activity. In this global backdrop of risks, SFC students are experiencing a student life, which could not have been imagined previously. This year (2021) we will be planning (Sept-Oct 2021) and holding (Nov 2021) an exhibit at the Tokyo Yumenoshima Tropical Greenhouse Dome. This semester's theme continues to be MOTTAINAI but the event enables us to add TROPICAL and REALITY as key themes too. We hope people with are interested in our themes, "reality" and "realization" will join the Africa Lab.
