From the futuristic laboratory of the San Marino Pavilion, where visitors will be able to tangibly take part in the construction of the country’s future, to Malawi’s structure, which will narrate the country’s history through the eyes of a child: each pavilion offers unique and striking stimuli.

“Expo 2020 is our opportunity to unite the world under a banner of hope and optimism towards the future. And what’s more optimistic than highlighting the talent of youths?”. This is how Hind AlBoom, General Manager for International Participants in the Dubai Universal Exhibition, describes the pavilions of nine countries: Djibouti, Grenada, Malawi, Myanmar, Saint Kitts and Nevis, San Marino, Sri Lanka, Suriname and Zimbabwe.
What do they have in common? They were all invented and designed by young students, in line with Expo’s effort to engage and fully value the new generations.
Sri Lanka’s pavilion, a dynamic structure revolving around the concept of “water that flows”, will highlight the country’s adaptability and capacity to transform challenges into opportunities
Myanmar’s pavilion will immerse visitors into a spiritual voyage aimed at emphasising the values of daily life.
“Open for business” is the inspiring motif of the Zimbabwe Pavilion, which the young creators envision as a underestimated jewel of the African continent.
The “Island of Spice”, Grenada, will showcase its flourishing chocolate and nutmeg industries, welcoming visitors with an extraordinary abstract sculpture.
The funky-style containers of Djibouti paint the picture of a country as a land of trade, tourism and technologies.
Nature, culture and history are the key themes of the multisensory pavilion of Saint Kitts and Nevis, designed by secondary-school students, where visitors will be able to see, touch, taste, smell and hear the island’s secrets
The extremely colourful and lively structure of Suriname will instead invite visitors to “walk through water” to discover the country’s natural beauty.
