The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize, an international peace prize established according to Alfred Nobel's will, was awarded to Nihon Hidankyo (the Japan Confederation of A- and H-Bomb Sufferers Organizations), for their activism against nuclear weapons, assisted by victim/survivors (known as Hibakusha) of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. They will receive the prize at a ceremony on 10 December 2024 at Oslo, Norway.




Laureate


The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Nihon Hidankyō "for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons and for demonstrating through witness testimony that nuclear weapons must never be used again".




Reactions


Co-chair of the Nihon Hidankyo, Toshiyuki Mimaki, expressed surprise of the award, telling reporters the thought "those fighting hard for peace in Gaza would deserve it." He then warned of the danger of nuclear weapons being used for terrorism, warning that if "Russia uses them against Ukraine, Israel against Gaza, it won't end there." He compared the situation of Gaza to "Japan 80 years ago."




Candidates


Though nominations are strictly kept a secret, several Norwegian parliamentarians and other academics are privileged to publicly announce their preferred candidates simply to raise publicity both for the nominee and the nominator.
