A Japanese organization of atomic bomb survivors that won this year&#039;s Nobel Peace Prize has launched a crowdfunding drive to raise funds to send delegates to the award ceremony.
                
Officials from Nihon Hidankyo said on Friday that the goal is to collect 10 million yen, or about 64,000 dollars.
                
The organization plans to send 31 people to the ceremony in Norway&#039;s capital Oslo on December 10. They will include hibakusha, or atomic bomb survivors, and descendants of a survivor.
                
Nihon Hidankyo officials said the group&#039;s three co-chairs, who will be on stage at the ceremony, will have their costs covered by the Nobel Committee.
                
They said the rest of the attendees will each need roughly half a million yen, or about 3,200 dollars, for travel and accommodation alone.
                
The officials said more funding will be necessary to hire caregivers and interpreters, and that the costs would be too much to bear by individuals.
                
Assistant Secretary General Hamasumi Jiro called for support in the effort to raise the funds.
                
He said he believes Nihon Hidankyo won the prize for providing witness testimony to ensure that there are &quot;no more hibakusha.&quot; He said the campaign led to the non-use of nuclear weapons for almost 80 years since the end of World War Two.
                
Hamasumi said the award ceremony will be a chance to once again make the plea that nuclear arms should never be used, at a time when the risk of the use of nuclear weapons is increasing.
