The origami peace crane, and the story of Sadako Sasaki, a victim of the Hiroshima bomb who died of leukemia nine years later, is a powerful reminder of the humanitarian impact of the bomb. Peace cranes have become an international symbol of peace and are used in many ways at Hiroshima events around the country. This info sheet can be a handout to accompany any event that uses peace cranes — and the download version includes a link to a video to teach you how to fold peace cranes!
