Yui Fujiki works on nuclear disarmament, the humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons, and the global governance of nuclear risks. She was born and spent the first 24 years of her life in Hiroshima, where she attended Hiroshima City University, earning a master’s degree in peace and conflict resolution. She also holds a master’s degree in political science from Simon Fraser University; her thesis explored nuclear waste management and safety in Canada and Japan, demonstrating how grassroots resistance can influence nuclear governance and expose the enduring threats of nuclear policy and infrastructure.
Yui supported research activities at the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and has presented her research at several global forums, bringing a cross-cultural, justice-driven perspective to advancing nuclear disarmament and peace.
