ข้อมูลอีเว้นท์

Meet creators and scientists who will inspire you how to transform wood into an unexpected design at Would Change Challenge MEETUP! Please mark your calendar and join our online party and talk on February 2nd,3:00 pm-7:00 pm.
 
About 70% of Japanese land area is forest, and about half of these forests were planted by people after the war. Half of the planted forests are more than 50 years old and now entering a period of use.
What is needed to keep the forests in Japan healthy for a long time is for people to repeat the cycle of "harvest, use, plant and grow" these planted forests. In other words, the "use" of the Japanese wood is an important driving force to keep this cycle going.
 
WOULD CHANGE Challenge project is taking a creative approach to the expansion of the Japanese wood usage and endeavors to change (transform, convert, update, expand) the appeal and visibility of the Japanese wood and the "view of wood". No special wood processing skills or expertise are required. We are looking for ideas not only from creators who are already using wood in their work but also from those who are eclectic about wood and forests and would like to use it in the future.
