Distribution of Cranes to Citizens Contributing Efforts to Transforming and Honoring the Cranes

Article ID：0000009829 印刷ページ表示

The paper cranes dedicated at the Children’s Peace Monument in Peace Memorial Park are entrusted with thoughts and prayers for peace, as well as dreams and wishes of the contributors. We are promoting policies to transform and honor the spirit of the paper cranes, so that the peace wishes dedicated to their creation may reach beyond local boundaries and enter the hearts of many people around the world, expanding the circle of support for nuclear weapons abolition and giving rise to a shared, global vision towards world peace. We will be distributing paper cranes to citizens and organizations carrying out projects in line with these objectives.
