Reports
【Reflection】
In this program, we introduced our initiatives toward
achieving Nature Positive by 2030, along with booth exhibits
and talk sessions by leading companies and organizations
engaged in advanced efforts. During the exhibition period, we
welcomed many visitors. Under the theme, “What should we do
now to conserve rich biodiversity for future generations?”, we
called on visitors to consider the importance of a
society-wide approach to Nature Positive and provided an
opportunity to think about this together.
【Post EXPO Initiatives】
In order to conserve and pass on the nature and its blessings
to future generations, we hope to further expand of actions
and to promote society-wide efforts. We will continue to raise
awareness of the importance of this goal and call for broader
engagement across all sectors.
