International cooperation by GPS art of “C” onto Tokyo! From March 8 (Saturday) to May 31 (Saturday), 2025, a new project of “Walk in Her Shoes 2025”, “Let’s Walk and Draw “C” on the Earth! Let’s start GPS art!
Walk in Her Shoes 2025″ is an international cooperation program to raise awareness about global water issues and the current situation of women and girls in developing countries by simply walking at a time and place of your choice. Let’s draw the “C” of CARE with GPS art and send it to the world!
GPS art on Senzoku Pond in Ota-ku, Tokyo. Despite its location in Tokyo, Senzoku Pond has a tranquil atmosphere and is a popular place for recreation and relaxation where visitors can enjoy the scenery of the four seasons. Its name comes from the legend that Nichiren Shonin washed his feet in this pond, and the surrounding area is dotted with historical sites related to Nichiren.
In the Edo period (1603-1867), the pond was known as a spring-fed pond, and there is a record that Ieyasu Tokugawa stopped by the pond during his falconry trips. Since the Taisho era (1912-1926), the area has been maintained as a park and is a favorite place for citizens to stroll and enjoy boating.
This year, by walking or running and leaving a trail of the “C” of CARE and posting the saved GPS image on Facebook, X (Twitter), and Instagram with the two hashtags “#Walking for InternationalCooperation2025” and “#GPSArt,” you can donate 100 yen.
We are also developing a Walk in Her Shoes 2025 version of the “Reply Art” developed by the “Hokuriku GPS Art Club”. Please try this one as well!
