In October 2003, a delegation of NWIP students from Europe visited the North Asian Regional Conference of IPPNW in Kyoto, Japan and introduced the partipciants to the project.

The meeting held in Kyoto was the “4th North-Asian Regional Meeting, Aiming for Détente and Nuclear Disarmament in North-East Asia”. When speaking about nuclear disarmament the heritage of the Hibakusha is always there. Hence we have tried to get Japanese students interested in joining the project. The presentation held during the meeting was very brief and had two specific aims: to get new students interested and to inform and get the support of the Japanese IPPNW. We spoke with many students that had come to the meeting and were able to get the interest of the physicians. Present at the meeting was also the Chinese delegation; we hope to be able to follow up with delegations to China through meetings related to the 16th World Congress held in Beijing.
