CAMPUS Asia 2018 Summer Intensive Program in Tokyo and Hiroshima
On August 11, students from Waseda, Peking and Korea University participating in the 2018 Summer Intensive Program, organized by CAMPUS Asia, will be giving group presentations on the final product of their group work, which is a page of a fictitious joint history textbook describing the month of August 1945.
Differences in history recognition have long caused conflicts in East Asia. The eight-day summer program serves as an opportunity for participating students to think and discuss about the past, present and future of East Asia through various interactive and participatory activities, such as facilitated discussions, group work and field trips in Hiroshima, Kure and Tokyo. It also seeks to understand how a history can be constructed, deconstructed and re-constructed. Before the day of group presentations, students will also have visited sites such as the Itsukushima Shrine, the Maritime Self-Defense Force and the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, as well as spoken to atomic bomb survivors.
We invite all interested journalists and media representatives to attend the presentations.
