Big news!** The Japanese anti-nuclear group Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, has won the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize! Why it matters: The group received the honor 'for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons and for demonstrating through witness testimony that nuclear weapons must never be used again.' In the spotlight: The taboo against the use of nuclear weapons is under pressure, and Nihon Hidankyo's work is more crucial than ever. Congratulations to the survivors and their tireless efforts to ensure a safer world for all of us!
