The cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are asking colleges and universities around the world to establish and promote Hiroshima-Nagasaki Peace Study Courses designed to analyze and disseminate A-bomb lessons and the message of the survivors as a common social and intellectual asset for humankind, so that it can be communicated to the future generations.
This Foundation provided program support when the two universities below conducted peace studies in Hiroshima from November 2018 to January 2019.

From November 30 to December 9, a total of 18 participants (16 students and 2 teachers) from DePaul University, which offers the course, participated in peace studies in Hiroshima City and Nagasaki City. This was the seventh time that this university has visited Hiroshima.
