Creation of New Communication Space
Recently, to enable mutual understanding beyond national, ethnic and language barriers; to facilitate the symbiosis of the urban and natural environment, and to create centers for world-wide academic, artistic and cultural exchanges, the need for a wide variety of regional and global "communication activities" has been acutely felt.
Moreover, in the face of "sweeping urbanization" throughout the world, the role of parks is being reexamined as a place for "communication" in urban life. "Parks" have long been places where people gather to exchange and originate "live" information. As we approach the new era of the 21st century, parks are expected to perform such functions as "a communication center between people, nature, culture and technology" and as "an attractive center for creating new communities and lifestyle". "Parks" in the cities, will play a greater role as a medium for creating new "communication" among people at home and abroad. What roles are parks expected to fulfill in the future? "World Park Festival'95" will propose a new concept of parks through enjoyable festivities and present an opportunity for participants to share their wisdom and prepare for the coming era.
