Earnest Wish for World Peace

Minato City issued the Declaration as a City of Peace on August 15, 1985, calling for the abolition of nuclear weapons and permanent world peace.
Based on this Declaration, Minato City is engaged in various activities towards the realization of world peace. As a part of these activities, in April 2010 we joined “Mayors for Peace,” a global coalition of cities that seeks the abolition of nuclear weapons.

Mayors for Peace currently has 8,188 member cities in 166 countries as of July 1, 2022.
Together with other cities around the world that are working towards the realization of world peace, Minato City will continue to send out message about the importance and preciousness of peace.
