This movie which narrated in German was made by Ars Electronica. “Project Fumbaro Eastern Japan” (PFEJ) is known for being the largest and most functional organization supporting survivors utilizing a number of Social Networking Service (SNS) and a Philosophy named“Structural constructivism”. “Fumbaro” means 'hang in there', a term used by local people in Eastern Japan. The new support system made it possible to support more than 3,000 temporary shelters and temporary housing areas by the way of over 35,000 deliveries. Additionally, more than 3,000 volunteers were mobilized for over 30 various types of projects, including: Home Appliance, Heavy Equipment License, Study Aids for Kids, Entertainment, PC + Internet Use, Writing Encouragement Letters, Geiger Counter Use, Hand-made Goods, Jobs Using Sewing Machines, Horticulture, Job Assistance, Animal Rescue Team, Handicraft, Fishery, Disaster Prevention Education and Resilience Support Projects. PFEJ enabled people around the world to support survivors directly through various types of projects to suit their needs. This means PFEJ, a project devised by one individual was able to achieve something that Japan Red Cross ——who received contributions of more than 330 billion yen—— could not.
