Through the act of actively asking questions, we can re-examine perspectives that have been taken for granted, sometimes challenge them, and discover new viewpoints from there.

。
Thanks to this change, unexpected discoveries and original ideas are sure to emerge.

それは、何もかもを否定する懐疑主義に陥ることを意味するのではなく、より創造的で豊かな世界を紡ぎ出していくための、積極的な営みなのである。
