日本語は下にあります↓ [Event] World Matcha Forum #1 - Noto Earthquake charity event[Language] English[Location] Online (Zoom). Details will be provided upon ticket purchase.[Date &amp; Time] Saturday, 19 October 2024 at 15:00 CET We are proud of our Japanese culture with long and rich heritage through our parents and being born in Japan. Each day we spend our lives in Switzerland, we appreciate what we have inherited.What if we are taking our heritage for granted and it is actually on the verge of extinction? We plan to to host Matcha events annually and for at least 10 years, where the experienced and new keen Matcha friends would share with one another the time together. In the coming years we hope this becomes a community and platform where people are encouraged to discuss with each other on various Matcha topics. Moreover, this is a great opportunity for us to give back to the society.Incidentally, the name “World Matcha Forum” takes after the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland 😄 Moreover, this is a great opportunity for us to give back to the society, which is why we would like to dedicate our first World Matcha Forum to the Wajima lacquerware community. Disaster recovery around Wajima city has not progressed much. We would like to express our deepest condolences to the families of those who have lost their lives in the Noto Peninsula earthquake in January 2024, and our thoughts and prayers are with the individuals and communities who were affected by the natural disaster. All proceeds from the event will be donated to “Wajima Lacquerware Industry Association”, and we would like to encourage all who would like to support the recovery of the lacquerware association to participate in this event.We will publish the details of donation after the event.[Agenda]<ul><li>Short introduction of the hosts</li><li>Objectives of the event</li><li>Why we are hosting the event as a charity event this time</li></ul>Feeling guilty of playing ignorant, just like an SEP, “something we can't see, or don't see, or our brain doesn't let us see, because we think that it's Somebody Else's Problem.
