A-bomb Experience Lectures
|
Last year, the Foundation held once again the A-bomb Experience Lectures, which allow people visiting Peace Memorial Park to listen to A-bomb experiences without the need to apply in advance.
On a total of seven days, August 4-6, 13, 14, and October 4 and 5, sixteen A-bomb lectures were held (of which four were held in English), and an animation film on the atomic bombing was shown.
During this period, there were 1,558 visitors from within and outside Hiroshima Prefecture, from small children to those from generations that have experienced war, and all listened intently to the lectures.
Some of the comments provided in the questionnaires included "This made me think once again of the preciousness and importance of peace" and
"I want to tell other people I know what I heard today".
