This project is led mainly by Tokyo-based creators. Under the theme of “Exploring how non-survivors can pass down memories to the next generation,” they organize exhibitions where parents and children can learn about peace together, while also bridging the gap between war survivors and younger generations. Their mission is to encourage young people to go beyond just receiving information—to actively learn, listen, and think for themselves.
