The "Seeds of Change" exhibition is an award winning exhibition created by Soka Gakkai International (SGI) and The Earth Charter Initiative, first shown at the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in Johannesburg, South Africa in 2002.

Things cannot continue as they? No matter how complex global problems may seem, it is we ourselves who have given rise to them. Therefore, they cannot be beyond our power to resolve.
