GPS art with a “C” to depict the legacy of Expo ’70 Osaka✨
International cooperation by GPS art of “C” in Expo ’70 Commemorative Park! 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!
The Expo ’70 Commemorative Park was developed on the site of the 1970 World Exposition (Osaka Expo), and spans approximately 260 hectares. It features the iconic Tower of the Sun, as well as a Japanese garden, natural and cultural gardens, and a rich harmony between culture and nature. With its seasonal flowers and greenery, it remains a beloved recreational space for the public.
The 1970 Osaka Expo was a landmark event with the theme “Progress and Harmony for Mankind,” bringing together the culture and technology of nations around the world. The legacy of that spirit continues to live on throughout the park. Drawing a “C” in this historic setting sends a strong message of hope, peace, and sustainability for the future.
Each step you take carries meaning. Why not join this campaign and leave your own mark of solidarity and support?
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!
