CURRENT PROJECTS

  • Learn Peace

    Learn Peace is a project to bring nuclear disarmament into the classroom. Our educational outreach program encourages students to think critically about nuclear issues and to take initiative in advancing a nuclear-weapon-free world.

  • Nuclear Awareness Project

    This project highlights the dangers inherent in the whole nuclear chain, beginning with uranium mining, and debunks many of the myths. It exposes Government and Opposition policies on nuclear issues.

  • Million Pleas

    Million Pleas is an ICAN initiative to create the world’s largest video chain letter calling on leaders to negotiate a nuclear abolition treaty. It was started by a group of students from Hiroshima on the 65th anniversary of the bombing.
