Have you ever wondered what your hometown will be like in ten years?
The International Center for Creativity and Sustainable Development under the auspices of UNESCO (ICCSD) and Green & Shine Foundation (G&S Foundation) jointly held "2030 My Hometown" painting collection and exhibition in early December, 2020, including the painting collection, exhibition and education salon for children. This event helped children give free rein to their imagination, and offered them an opportunity to draw their hometown in 2030 with colorful painting brushes.
As of December 10, ICCSD has received nearly 1,000 paintings from 35 regions in 18 provinces, and it is captivated by children's passion for creation. Thanks to them for taking an active part in this event!
ICCSD couldn't display all the paintings because of the huge number, and it selected and exhibited some of the paintings that could render the theme. Please follow ICCSD's official account on Weibo @UNESCOICCSD to enjoy more paintings.
Next, please fix your eyes on the screen. Let's explore the fantastic world in children's imagination.
We can travel around the world without stepping out of our home in the future. Houses won't stay still. They can dive into the ocean and fly in the sky. We can settle down wherever we want at any time. Home in the Future by Zhao Lingyi who comes from Beijing
The painting adopts the concept of dual environmental protection and zero waste. The uppermost part of the picture shows some houses where people will live in the future. Among them, the dome-shaped one in the middle is Xintong's home. Pipes connecting these houses stretch all the way down into the ground, which is conducive to sustainable development.
