The quarterly magazine EXPO aims to report - on an ongoing basis - on the preparations for the Czech
Republic's participation in the Universal EXPO 2005 World's Exposition to be held in Japan´s Aichi prefecture. At the same
time, its purpose will be to trace and highlight major Czech activities and participants in the world expositions in the
past. A considerable portion of the magazine will also be devoted to the Czech Republic's current notables, projects
and activities promoted as part of the presentation of this country abroad. In addition to many other goals, the
magazine also aspires to offer a vivid picture of today's Czech Republic, its cultural and social life, and its place
and identity within the international community. The first issue appeared in July 2003.
