Congratulations to Nihon Hidankyo. Their Nobel Peace Prize is a well-deserved recognition of their relentless efforts to keep the scourge of nuclear weapons in the global consciousness and a timely boost to efforts to forge consensus on the NPT.

BREAKING NEWS The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPeacePrize to the Japanese organisation Nihon Hidankyo. This grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, also known as Hibakusha, is receiving the peace prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons and for demonstrating through witness testimony that nuclear weapons must never be used again. #NobelPrize
