■必要なリソース

情報発信・PR: To maximize the impact of our peace education initiative, we seek support in disseminating information through Expo 2025-related media, networks, or partner platforms. Our project promotes the global philosophy of Peace Psychology and encourages inner transformation as a foundation for building a peaceful society. By sharing our message widely—both within Japan and internationally—we can inspire more individuals, especially youth and educators, to take part in peacebuilding efforts.

We hope to reach:

Japanese and international visitors who value mental health, education, and nonviolence

Schools, peace NGOs, and families interested in psychological and intercultural tools for future society

Audiences who may not attend in person but could access content digitally

Expo-based dissemination will help us raise awareness about the importance of cultivating peace from within, and how this contributes to the theme of Peace and Designing Future Society in our Lives.

■大阪・関西万博テーマとの関わり

This project relates to the Osaka 2025 Expo due to it's focus on (1) Inner Peace as the Foundation for Social Change
Peace Psychology introduces the idea that a peaceful society begins with self-awareness, emotional regulation, and inner transformation. The project promotes these ideals through:

Workshops on emotional awareness, nonviolent communication, and empathy, helping individuals gain the tools to build harmonious relationships in their communities.

Guided reflections or meditations, cultivating responsibility and emotional clarity in a fast-changing world.

→ This aligns with the Expo’s vision of a well-being-centered society that prioritizes both mental health and social harmony.

(2) Cross-Cultural Co-Creation and Global Solidarity
Activities such as international peace dialogues, multilingual storytelling, and collaborative messages
