Who should give the trigger?
I'm a subdelegate of one organization which related to the local region near my school. I got along with one teacher because I took her class and her interest is similar to me. She is now the delegate of our NPO.
We held an event which was not directly related to our common activities but somewhat that region. We invited local people and let them to speak their personal experience after the second WW. The most of people who have experienced the war have been passed away. But recently next generation ,son and daughter of dispatched people who interested in the conservation of war memories try to speak in front of the young people even though they don't have experience of going to warfare.
Their stories were fully interested for me. I was able to know some new things. However, After the event, we were disappointed about the number of the students who participated in. There were approximately 50 people. Surprisingly, it was 7 students that joined the event. Moreover Japanese student was only one. The rest of the students were international(exchange) students.
Needless to say, this showed the attitude towards such this debatable subjects as peace. This university is liberal arts and some of the classes, for example, human security and development cooperation, are related to peace somewhat. But the result may suggest most of the students be indifferent.
I personally believe having interest or issue of concern attributes one's personal experience. If the society matured, it should provide such kind of opportunity for them by education.
It is controversial.
