Relief 2.0, an organic movement of volunteers and organizations to promote efficient disaster response and sustainable disaster recovery is holding a photo exhibition and talks at the Hub Singapore to create awareness of the current situation facing the tsunami survivors in the Japanese Tohoku region. All proceeds from sales made during the exhibit will be used towards buying art and handicrafts made by the survivors of the Tohoku Tsunami.
