Delegation of Nanjing University at PRIF

On July 11th, a dele­gation of students from Nanjing University visited PRIF. The dele­gation spent the last two weeks traveling Germany to research the life of John Rabe, who saved many lives in Nanjing during World War II. At PRIF, they engaged our researchers in a discus­sion on remem­brance culture and the practice of peace research.
