SEED of CHANGE

This is an exhibition created by SGI and the Earth Charter Initiative and first shown at WSSD (the World Summit on Sustainable Development) held in Johannesburg, South Africa, 2002.



Sixteen colorful panels give an introduction to sustainable development, the role of education and the Earth Charter as a set of values and principles for a sustainable living. Shown in 17 countries by 2006 and available in English, French, Italian, German, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish and Arabic language versions.


The "Seeds of Change" exhibition is often held by local SGI groups in cooperation with other NGOs, schools or community groups.

Mayflower Secondary was honoured to be able to bring this exhibition to our school as part of the activity for Humanities Week 2010.


The students have time to discuses issues like sustainable development, deforestation and climate change.






A group of students collected reflection from other students after they have visited the exhibition.
