Mayors for Peace, an international organization, founded in 1982 and led by the Mayors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, is working for a world without nuclear weapons and for safe and resilient cities as essential measures in order to realize lasting world peace. As of July 1, 2020 Mayors for Peace has grown to 7,909 cities in 164 countries and regions, including 218 U.S. members. These mayors represent in total more than one billion people.
For the 75th anniversaries of the U.S. atomic bombings, Mayors for Peace has created “No more Hiroshima! No more Nagasaki!”, a 7-minute compilation of video messages from 23 prominent people including the Mayors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, hibakusha from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, United Nations diplomats, and members of Mayors for Peace and the Nobel Peace Prize winning, International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN).
