As atomic bomb survivors have been reaching very advanced age, the role of the younger generation, who will carry the torch into the next era, is becoming increasingly important.
Hiroshima Prefecture and HOPe implement various programs to allow the young generation to learn about the realities of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima so that they will be able to play an important role in the international community in the future.
We encourage you, young people, to participate in programs that interest you and join us in handing down the thoughts of atomic bomb survivors to future generations and sending messages of peace to the world.
