Online commemoration 3/11/2011 live from Fukushima

Live from Fukushima – Remembering March 2011, fifteen years on
Online commemoration with a live tour of the Great East Japan Earthquake and Nuclear Disaster Memorial Museum in Futaba
On Sunday 15 March we will gather online to mark the anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Fifteen years later, Fukushima continues to rebuild, reflect and move forward. This memorial offers a moment not only to remember the events of March 2011, but also to learn how the region is facing the future.
Participants will join a live online connection with the Great East Japan Earthquake and Nuclear Disaster Memorial Museum in Futaba, offering a rare opportunity to see how the disaster is documented and remembered in Fukushima itself. The programme also includes contributions from representatives of the Embassy of Japan in the Netherlands and Fukushima Prefecture, as well as a presentation by Joost Kralt of Fukushima University on the current situation in Fukushima.
