This March will mark the 5th anniversary of the disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant in the Tohoku region of Japan. On Monday, February 22 Mar Creation, Inc. and Center for Remembering & Sharing will co-host film screening and talk/discussion events focusing on the role of media, how media portray Fukushima, and what has been reported since the accident.
More than 46,000 evacuees are still forced to live outside Fukushima. The Fukushima Future Center for Regional Revitalization (FURE) of Fukushima University was established immediately after the accident to support the evacuees and to revitalize Fukushima. Three members of FURE, scholars, students, and a radio personality will be in New York to discuss Fukushima’s current situation.
