- A word on Worldraw's website -

"Communicating not through words but drawings, is a theme we find very appealing. We believe that such an initiative contributes to the development of education by means of the internet throughout many regions of the world."

The prize awarding ceremony was held in Tokyo at the Center of Japan's Future Science. Representing E-Friends were Tatsuya Nakao (who created the E-Friends website), Mr. Uemura (teacher at Kumamoto's Musashi Elementary School and first participant in the Worldraw project), Bruno Jactat (Founder of E-Friends) and his wife Mie Jactat.

After the ceremony a photo of members of the prize awarding board, with whom we had a chance to chat during a buffet.
