Programme details
In this lecture, we will discuss the economic impact of hosting the Expo, the gathering of ideas and cutting-edge technologies, and how the achievement of the SDGs is closely related to the theme of "Designing a Future Society for Life." We will also explain how to create an Expo that minimizes negative impacts on the environment and society and maximizes people's potential, and how the involvement of all stakeholders is important to realizing the sustainable society that the Expo will pave the way for.
