Recap Day 4 :USM-HCU, Hiroshima 2023

Day-4 at Hiroshima city recap; we had a blast strolling around the splendid city of Hiroshima & Hondori street alongside our HCU buddies & later on had full-tummy of scrumptious Japanese food prepared by the buddies themselves. Oh take us back to Hiroshima 🥹💔

On August 22nd, 2023, a remarkable lecture titled "Global Hibakusha" was delivered at HCU (Hiroshima City University) by Prof. Robert A. Jacobs. This lecture, likely focused on the long-lasting impact of the atomic bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, would have shed light on the experiences and struggles of survivors, known as Hibakusha, and their global significance in advocating for peace and nuclear disarmament. Following the lecture, a series of exchange activities involving HCU students and participants from the USM (presumably a university or organization) took place. These activities included a lunch meeting, a presentation by the USM students or representatives, a city tour to explore Hiroshima's history and culture, a communal dinner, and an evening of games at the Sakura Dormitory. Such engagements foster cultural exchange, knowledge sharing, and friendships, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation and understanding, especially in the context of Hiroshima's poignant history.
