October 17-23, 2016 2016 World Polio Day Art Forum (Tokyo)
An event was held by JIGH (Japan Institute for Global Health) with the goal of eradicating polio in 2019.
I introduced the history and current situation of fundraising through art, and examples of Sony Digital Entertainment.
The talk session with Yoko Sakanoue, a brand strategist and friend, was a great success with so many people coming to see us. happy !
Also, with live paint, Shuko Tsuchiya, who is also a good friend of mine, drew the national flowers of the three countries where polio remains in ink, which was a great inspiration.
At the social gathering after the event, I was able to interact with various people, and I felt that there were still many issues such as polio problems in Japan.
What I can do … I would like to continue striving to contribute to society by utilizing entertainment.
