Coastal areas in Iwate prefecture/ 岩手県 were very seriously damaged by the 3/11earthquake and tsunami. A few days ago, some ordinary people living in Morioka city/盛岡市, which is the capital of Iwate prefecture, launched a poster project to encourage people in the Tsunami-stricken areas.
The posters are drawing considerable attention on the Internet. I think that they are impressive and touching. The posters show what the victims are thinking about and how they are struggling to rebuilt their lives and towns.
Every poster has a short sentence. It's a message from the people in the poster. Please see the link below. There are English translations.
