International cooperation by walking! GPS art of “C” all over Japan✨
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 in Bessho-numa Park (Bessho-numa Swamp) in Minami-ku, Saitama City. Bessho-numa Park is a waterside park rooted in local history and culture, where folk tales such as the “Legend of the Serpent of Bessho-numa” have been told since ancient times. 1926, Chojiro Kojima (小島長次郎) invested his private fortune to develop the surrounding land into a park, which is now a place where citizens can enjoy nature in all four seasons.
While experiencing the local culture and nature, draw the letter “C” on the trail you walked and leave a record with the GPS application.
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!
