New approaches reflecting the EXPO 2000 key theme "Humankind - Nature - Technology" will show how the United Nations can tackle the economical and environmental challenges that the future presents.
  
In the past, world expositions were focused on showcasing technical advances. Their symbols - such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris or the Atomium in Brussels - symbolizes industrial development. "EXPO 2000 in Germany has the ambition to become a symbol of the new alignment of technological advance," explained Birgit Bruel, Germany's EXPO 2000 Commissioner General, "and to generate optimism for the new millennium."
World expositions are authorized by the "Bureau International des Expositions" (B.I.E.). In Paris on the basis of international agreements. The German government submitted its official EXPO 2000 application to B.I.E. in 1989. The new concept with the key theme "Humankind - Nature - Technology" won the day, and Germany was given the go-ahead in June 1990. From that time on, the host country has been busy planning and organizing the World Exposition.
