Postponed online event “All humans could be next Hibakushas. All humans could make others be Hibakushas” organized by Nagasaki Youth Delegation 2020 will be held on May 24th.

Even after 75 years from atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we still have about 14,000 nuclear warheads on the world and younger generation from Nagasaki now try to raise fundamental question about our responsibility for nuclear weapons. This presentation was originally scheduled to be presented as a side event at the 2020 NPT Review Conference in NewYork. But because of the pandemic caused by new corona-virus (COVID-19), we decided to present it online with some adjustments.

We expect you to get a strong message from members of Nagasaki Youth Delegation; i.e. “nuclear weapon is your problem“.

What is Nagasaki Youth Delegation?
“Nagasaki Youth Delegation” is a human resource development project since 2013, sponsored by PCU Nagasaki Council for Nuclear Weapons Abolition composed of Nagasaki Prefecture, Nagasaki City and Nagasaki University.
