26 Jun Hibakusha Testimony for 75th anniversary of Hiroshima / Nagasaki bombings

Dear ICAN Campaigners,

Greetings from Rico, Peace Boat.

We are happy to announce that there will be a series of four Hibakusha testimony sessions coming up in July to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

This is a part of the global campaign by ICAN this summer with the same purpose, and the first day is set on July 7th, the three year anniversary of the adoption of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) at the United Nations.

To attract as various audiences as possible, the testimonies will be delivered in English, Spanish, and Japanese with interpretations into other languages (please see the details below). Please help us circulate the words so that we can reach out to those who have never heard Hibakusha’s story live before in their language.
*Please check which language will be provided per event.

Please click the link below each event for registration.
Hope to see as many of you there!

All the best,
Rico Robertson and the team
Peace Boat
