Ganbatte 365

Ganbatte 360 is a project which aims to visually document and disseminate information about the rebuilding process following the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. They have created a series of 15 second-long videos which explain the work that Peace Boat is doing. About the project: ‘Ganbatte 365 is a project to document renewal in the aftermath of the 3.11 disaster in Japan. While mass media and documentaries cover news and issues from many angles, they sometimes leave viewers with an unsettled or helpless feeling. We want to reach out to the world and tell the stories of individuals that have responded to an inner call to Act!’ http://www.ganbatte365.jp/en/about/
