EXPO2025 Theme Weeks

Programme details

This session brings together people from diverse backgrounds—across disability, nationality, race, region, and gender—to connect, build empathy through dialogue and culture, and explore how we can co-create a future where all lives shine. The key message is We Are All Minorities! With Sachiko Nakajima, producer of the Jellyfish Pavilion, as moderator, we reflect on our own uniqueness and envision a society where everyone can freely express what they love.

Speakers include puppeteer Kazuhide Tsujimoto on traditional arts, human rights, and social issues; Rossella Menegazzo from the Italy Pavilion on local cultures and Expo possibilities; Ryosuke Nakanishi, director of No Side, on life with children with severe disabilities; and Hikaru Hayakawa, a wheelchair-using artist from No Side, sharing what art means to her through the Expo experience. A performance of Awa Ningyo Joruri will follow.
