Feedback:

- I would like to participate in support programs and training opportunities for atomic bomb survivors in Korea.

- I gained new knowledge about the atomic bombing. I hope to share what I learned about the effects of radiation exposure through lectures and discussions.

- This program was truly inspiring. It helped me better understand the health effects of radiation and the long-term suffering of those affected.
