ICAN, you can, we can—abolish nuclear weapons! United Nations Youth Champions for Disarmament participate in the webinar “Path Forward for Nuclear Disarmament” by the Hiroshima-ICAN Academy 2020

On 6 August 2020, the world commemorated the seventy-fifth Hiroshima Day, remembering the victims of the atomic bombing of the city on 6 August 1945. To recognize the seventy-fifth anniversary, Hiroshima-ICAN Academy hosted the live webinar, “Path Forward for Nuclear Disarmament”. While open to all interested, United Nations Youth Champions for Disarmament included, the webinar was originally designed for participants of the Hiroshima-ICAN Academy on Nuclear Weapons and Global Security 2020. The Academy, held jointly by Hiroshima Prefecture and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), aims to train young people to “make peaceful contributions to the world”—something that we Youth Champions equally strive to achieve!
