80 years after the war. Now, the number of people who have experienced war inheriting memories of the Battle of Okinawa is decreasing. Based on history, testimonies, materials, etc., we will hold a total of 8 training courses to acquire the knowledge necessary to pass on memories, learn techniques to “speak in one's own words,” and train those responsible for peace lectures.
