World BEYOND War: 81 Years Since Nuclear Bombings
Posted: 2nd August 2026
The 81st anniversaries of the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are coming up on August 6 and 9.
We’ve created all kinds of resources for educational activities and public events that you are free to use.
Governments are racing to build more nuclear weapons, to locate them in more countries, and to plan wars with them that they fantasize about “winning.”
Please take part in or organize a local event that can help nudge the world back toward survival.
find or add a listing for an event near you on our events calendar!
Let us know how it goes!
Peace and a long future,
—World BEYOND War
