People around the world marked the anniversaries of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings by taking part in #CranesforOurFuture and calling for a future free from nuclear weapons.
To participate in the campaign around the August anniversaries of the 1945 bombings of Japan, people folded and shared paper cranes on social media with messages about why moving closer to a world without nuclear weapons is important to them.
Now in its third year, #CranesForOurFuture is the largest public digital demonstration for a world without nuclear weapons, reaching and inspiring millions.
#CranesForOurFuture was established by the Hiroshima Prefecture, Nagasaki Prefecture, the Nuclear Threat Initiative, and Hiroshima Organization for Global Peace. The effort is joined by a broad coalition of institutions and public figures committed to a safer future for all, with support and participation growing each year.
