Atomic bombing survivor and peace advocate Setsuko Thurlow called for action for the good of society in a graduation speech at her alma mater in Canada on Tuesday.

Thurlow, 87, who survived the 1945 U.S. atomic bombing of Hiroshima, told graduates at the University of Toronto that she has acted to warn people of the danger of nuclear weapons out of her moral obligations as a hibakusha.

Thurlow, who previously delivered a speech at the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony, called on the audience to "get involved, take action, make things happen" and "persist and persevere" as part of her advice to them.
