A similar event last year helped raised money for the rebuilding of a school in Haiti, following a disaster there. You can find out more about our global event here: http://global-day.pecha-kucha.org/ Inspire Japan: The 20x20 presentations will be focused on 4 main themes INSPIRE, JAPAN, THE ISSUES, RECOVERY.
