Ahead of the 40th Anniversary, ICJB is organizing a US Tour of Survivors of the Bhopal Disaster to revive global awareness on the causes and consequences of this event.

These survivors will present an account of how gas-exposed communities in Bhopal have persisted for 40 years, treating illnesses and documents the continued environmental pollution and damage to health faced in their communities. With this tour, ICJB hopes to grow support for the campaign in communities across the US, both leading up to and after the 40th Anniversary on December 3rd, 2024.
