  1. Today! Join us!

    International Student/Young #Pugwash (ISYP), a global and interdisciplinary network of students and young professionals concerned with the interface of #science, #technology, society and #ethics.

    I'll be in conversation with ISYP members about my book and work on global #hibakusha issues in an online event this Tuesday.

    "On the basis of extensive research, including oral histories in over 20 radiation-affected communities, Bo reveals the many ripple effects from #nuclear production, testing, and disasters. He connects these seemingly distinct legacies into one comprehensive global history of a slow-motion nuclear war.

    In order to better understand this framing and delve into particular case studies, #ISYP convenes a discussion event with Bo Jacobs on Tuesday, April 25, 2023, at 11 am GMT / 7 am EST / 8 pm JST."

  2. I'll have an online discussion of global hibakusha issues and my work with International Student/Young Pugwash (based in Germany) next Tuesday on Zoom.

    From the event promo:
    "The Japanese term ‘hibakusha’ commonly refers to the people affected by the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. It roughly translates to ‘people affected by the bomb’.

    In his book 'Nuclear Bodies: The Global Hibakusha', Robert (Bo) Jacobs broadens the term – conceptually and geographically."

    Join and share, especially with students.
