This year, on the 80th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we honour the hibakusha and all nuclear weapons survivors by holding their stories close and carrying their legacy forward. 📄 Adopt a story. Fold a paper crane. Hold their memory in your hands. By sharing your crane, you help ensure their courage, their pain, and their call for a nuclear-free world are never forgotten. #NuclearBan #HoldTheMemory #Hiroshima80 #Nagasaki80

The hibakusha from Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and all nuclear weapons survivors are entrusting us with their stories.We must ensure their memories do not fade. By holding their memory, we carry their fight forward. #NihonHidankyo #NuclearBan #CranesOfMemory

"It is up to people like me, like you, to stand up against these weapons and the leaders who threaten the world with them," says Koko Kondo who was only eight months old when her city was destroyed by the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. #nuclearban

For 80 years the hibakusha courageously shared the experience of living through atomic bombings and demanding an end to nuclear weapons. The #NuclearBan is our best path forward, and after 80 years, the time has come to make nuclear weapons history.
