SUMMARY: [PiA-Unaffiliated] ICAN/Peace Boat: Learning from Koko Kondo
DESCRIPTION: Hi PiA Alumni & Friends!Happy New Year! I hope you're doing well and staying safe. I'm Hana, and I was a 2019-2020 PiA Fellow at the National Democratic Institute's field office in Nay Pyi Taw, Burma/Myanmar. Since being evacuated to one of my home countries, Japan, I've endeavored to carry on the PiA spirit to navigate further channels for growth and learning -- one of which was participating in the Nobel Peace Prize-winning International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons' (ICAN) Academy last July to August.Sponsored by Peace Boat, an ICAN steering group member, I'd love to invite you all to a PiA-exclusive opportunity to learn from Koko Kondo, who is a survivor -- a hibakusha -- of the 1945 atomic bombing in Hiroshima, Japan. Though unlisted, our event will be recognized internally by Peace Boat as a valuable contribution to its groundbreaking advocacy project, "Every Second Counts for the Survivors! -Peace Boat Hibakusha Project Online-."  As the moderator for this Zoom event, I'd like to dedicate the first 20-25 minutes to Koko's testimony and, calibrated to the number of participants and questions, use the remaining time for a Q&A dialogue. I hope to render our discussion as collaborative as possible, so please feel free to share any thoughts, ideas, and questions via the registration form upon your RSVP.Given PiA's ongoing initiative to learn from our history and positionality, I thought it timely to share this unparalleled opportunity with you all. I hope we can make it, together!
