Introduction
In a tumultuous world, increasingly beset by violence and discrimination, the need to affirm our humanity is as urgent as ever before. The WIEF plays an important role to promote the common pursuit of peace and prosperity through the diversity of the arts and business.
This year’s MOCAfest focuses on the creative artistic expressions from Indonesia’s various provinces and the ASEAN region, highlighting the powerful concept, encapsulated in the nation’s official motto of “bhinekka tunggal ika” (unity in diversity), to unite different nations across the globe.
