Project Objectives

The project aims to promote ultra-high-resolution digital archiving of the museum’s specimen and artifact collections, while implementing innovative exhibition and educational programs based on the digitized materials. It also proposes new communication models through educational content development.

Project Approach

The National Museum of Nature and Science’s expertise in exhibitions and learning support, combined with an innovative video production unit’s know-how in video and educational program creation, is integrated to train emerging content producers. These producers will effectively utilize museum specimens across real, virtual, and mass media spaces, aiming to become a center for promoting science education in Asian museums.

National Museum of Nature and Science

The National Museum of Nature and Science (Kahaku), founded in 1877, is one of Japan’s oldest museums and the nation’s only comprehensive national science museum. As a core institution for science museums in Japan and Asia, it pursues three primary missions: research and study, collection and preservation of specimens and materials, and exhibition and educational programming.
