We handed a letter of commission for "Yokohama Children's Peace Messenger" and "Child Executive Committee" to 38 children who participated in the finals of the "Yokohama Children's International Peace Speech Contest".
At the meeting, I was able to hear the passion of the children who seriously think about, such as recognizing differences and reducing inequality in order to realize a peaceful world that children think.
As a representative of the children in Yokohama and as a member of the team "BLUE VOICE", I hope that they will strongly communicate their wishes and initiatives for international peace to the world.
(For details on the finals of the speech contest, see the press release materials, and see the YouTube video (outside site) for elementary school studenｔ students working on the speech contest.)
