By learning about diverse values of happiness around the world, we increase opportunities to think about and discover our happiness. To foster ties with the world, we will create a place that connects Japan and the world through "culture," "language," and "dialogue" to foster empathy, reliance, and goodwill among people.
Fifty works will be selected from all over the world that express "dreams and ambitions" and exhibited in the Metaverse space to create the "World Well-being Museum".
The "World Well-being Museum" will be unveiled and a global exchange event will be held.
