Hiroshima-Nagasaki-Project
In the Hiroshima-Nagasaki-Project, students from the Department of Japanese and Korean Studies are engaged in historical education work that is becoming increasingly important in light of the current global political situation. T students create posters and videos on topics such as the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and, on behalf of the National Peace Memorial Halls in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, translate eyewitness accounts of atomic bomb survivors from Japanese into German. The results will be presented at the opening of the exhibition.
