Boston Global Forum – AIWS Film Park
July 8, 2025
Today, on July 8, we solemnly remember the late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who was tragically assassinated on this day in 2022. His visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to peace, democracy, and a free and open Indo-Pacific continue to inspire us and countless people around the world.
Shinzo Abe was a great friend of the Boston Global Forum (BGF). In recognition of his exceptional contributions to peace and security, BGF honored him with the World Leader for Peace and Security Award in 2015.
As part of the Shinzo Abe Initiative, the AIWS Film Park is currently producing a narrative film about Shinzo Abe’s life, leadership, and legacy. This film will honor his remarkable contributions and share his story with future generations, highlighting his steadfast belief in human dignity, compassion, and international cooperation. It will also showcase his vision in advancing the AI World Society, a vision that aligns technology with human-centered values and global peace.
Through this project, we reaffirm our commitment to the values for which Prime Minister Abe stood, ensuring that his vision continues to guide and inspire efforts to build a more peaceful, just, and innovative world in the age of AI.
We invite all friends and partners to join us in honoring Shinzo Abe’s legacy and to support the Shinzo Abe Initiative and the Shinzo Abe Film as we move forward together in building the AI World Society and a future aligned with his aspirations.
