On March 9, 2026, PEACE INCLUSION PIECE participated in the opening session of the 34th Session of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD Committee), held at the United Nations Office at Geneva. Chitose Namboku, together with Shiko Kurihara, Deputy Representative Director of PIP, had the honor of participating in the session and making a presentation. We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the valuable opportunity to meet and connect with many distinguished members and stakeholders, including the Chair of the Committee, the Vice-Chair, the former Chair, and Committee Member Hiroshi Tamon. It was a great honor for us to share our perspectives on the rights and inclusion of persons with disabilities on the international stage. This year, PIP is planning to hold the CRPD 20th Anniversary Forum at Haneda Airport in Tokyo, commemorating the 20th anniversary of the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Toward the realization of a world where no one is left behind, we will continue to take on new challenges and move forward together with partners in Japan and around the world.
