The Permanent Exhibition will be ongoing for three years on the 1st floor of the EAC and its co-halls. It illustrates EAC’s establishment objective and philosophy, the stories behind the EAC’s architectural design, the connection between humans and natural disasters and the different ways of co-existing with earth.
By exhibiting various works of art, we aim to promote environmental awareness and the EAC’s philosophy of “Common Understanding, Common Consensus, and Collective Actions” to the wider community. We begin the exhibition with “Today is the result of our past actions” and end the exhibition with “Today is the future’s history” (which means our future will be shaped by our actions today). In the Earth Exhibition Hall, it mentions the correlation and connection between humanities and natural disasters, and their coexistence with earth. It also demonstrates ways of recycling in a gracious and thankful manner..
The Tzu Chi Disaster Relief collection include items that highlight Tzu Chi’s commitment to environmental protection and its mission of protecting the environment by clapping hands.

Tzu Chi’s designers have devoted their time and efforts into designing these items not only to fulfill the environmental objectives, but also to deliver love and care to disaster victims and enable the children to continue with their education.
