Watch the very moment when representatives for the Japanese organisation Nihon Hidankyo received their Nobel Peace Prize diplomas and medals at the ceremony in Oslo.
Nihon Hidankyo was awarded the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.

The hibakusha gave the world more than their stories. They gave us hope through the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. Today, we honour their leadership, and we commit to advocating for the treaty and the total elimination of nuclear weapons. #NuclearBan #HoldtheMemory

One day, the atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki will no longer be among us as witnesses to history.
But with a strong culture of remembrance and continued commitment, new generations in Japan are carrying forward the experience and the message of the witnesses. They are inspiring and educating people around the world. In this way they are helping to maintain the nuclear taboo – a precondition of a peaceful future for humanity.
