The Gaesong Industrial Complex (GIC, located in North Korea) is a joint project between North and South Korea that promotes peace and economic development through inter-Korean economic cooperation. The project was launched in 2003 as a result of the 2000 Korea summit talks. In 2016, the project was shut down, and sanctions on North Korea prevent the complex from re-opening. As tensions on the Korean peninsula once again rise – including the destruction of the Liaison Office by North Korea – this webinar aims to share the values of peace cherished by the GIC.
Featuring:
Jin-Hyang Kim, President, Gaeseong Industrial District Foundation
