SangSaeng No. 28 (Summer 2010): Embracing Biodiversity & Cultural Diversity has just been published. The 2010 International Year of Biodiversity and the Rapprochement of Cultures are undoubtedly interconnected in presenting to us a perspective that embraces the variety of humans within nature. This issue of SangSaeng aims to explore related values and issues regarding the above-mentioned Diversity that are central to bringing about a mutual and sustainable future, specifically among countries in the Asia-Pacific. Particularly, it will focus on notable stories of initiatives for appreciating diversity within nature and cultures under the overarching direction of peace in the world.
