Our world is a beautiful place in its amazing array of cultural diversity. Many times we know too little about different cultures, or our knowledge is limited to only most prominent facts. HELLO, WORLD is a cultural event series organized by World Culture Open (WCO) to introduce different cultures to the local communities through creative and interactive experiences.
