Abstract
This paper argues that first-personness is an important key for solving many global issues in the modern society. It proposes a set of design principles for designing activities to create a first-person perspective to the world based on the urge theory by Toda, the constructive mindset theory, and the create/connect/open principle we had proposed previously. We illustrate these principles by examples in cross-cultural collaboration activities in the World Museum Project, especially experiences of creating crafts and daily objects in authentic environments.
