Voices of comfort women for dummies
Understand the importance of the voices of comfort women!
In 2015, South Korea proposed the idea of applying for the Memory of the World Heritage List using archives and documents related to the historical materials of the Japanese "comfort women" during World War II. It invited 14 citizen groups from 8 countries, including Taiwan, China, and Japan, to join and implement the project. It was named "Voice of Comfort Women" and in May 2016, representatives of all groups jointly signed an application to the United Nations in Seoul.
The Women's Aid Association, which represents Taiwan in participating in this project, selected 271 representative files and cultural relics from the 5,042 audio-visual and book materials and 730 related cultural relics collected for registration application.
However, the "Voice of the Comfort Women" project was not successfully included in the World Memory Heritage at that time. Although it was regrettable, the citizen groups from various countries involved in the "Voice of the Comfort Women" still did not give up and held regular meetings to discuss countermeasures. With the continuous efforts of everyone, the history of "comfort women" human rights violations can be preserved, the voices of "comfort women" victims who have the courage to speak out for themselves and fight for human rights can be heard around the world, and #women's human rights can receive more attention. and protection.
Shen Xinru, an intern of the Women's Aid Society, specially created a picture card specifically for this issue, hoping that everyone can better understand what "Comfort Women's Voice" is, and also calls on the importance of "Comfort Women's Voice" being registered as a World Memory Heritage!
