Michelle
Gin
Biker &
Citizen-Ambassador
I
try to share with others the
perspective that we are all
global citizens, not merely
citizens of the U.S., China,
South Africa, etc. and that we
all share the same
environment. I would like to
be a part of the IPPNW Bike
Tour Japan to help me grow
professionally, academically,
and personally. The bike tour
would allow me to learn from
my peers from around the world
so I could bring back home
various perspectives. I have
never traveled to Japan and
would love to learn more about
the culture as well as the
attitudes from my peers from
around the world toward U.S.'s
nuclear proliferation. I hope
to be a part of a global
network of the next generation
of movers and shakers.
