Comments such as:
“The residences of rich and poor people are clearly separated by this road.”
“There are stray dogs in the area where the poor live and cars driving too fast. That is very dangerous” were heard.

Students who took part in “African Studies” and visited South Africa explained what they felt while there and explained about some of the problems there. Visitors listened carefully to their earnest words.

In the exhibition about “environment” which is one of the themes of the SGH program, the students devised a way for visitors to think about environmental issues related to them.

The students wanted to share their feelings with many people and to create a better would together. In all of the exhibition corners, the visitors could feel their passion.
