It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 2021 CSPS-Korea Symposium on “Human Security in the Gray Zone: North Korean Defectors and Their Children,” co-organized by the Center Security and Policy Studies-Korea (CSPS-Korea) and the Human Rights in North Korea (THINK), a non-governmental organization that advocates the human rights of the North Korean defectors and their children.

This year’s Symposium focuses on the theme of Human Security and aims to address the human security challenges faced by the North Korean defectors and their third country-born children. The Symposium opens up its arena of discussion by showing a documentary film on the lives of the North Korean defectors and their children born in the third country followed by a plenary session in which the defectors and the children themselves talk about their experience. The Symposium then brings together the experts and representatives from the United Nations offices and non-governmental organizations that advocate the human rights and human security.

The Symposium will be held in a hybrid format on 26 May, 2021 from 10:00 to 15:00. Under the current COVID-19 circumstance, there would be a limited number of available seats and it is highly recommended to fill out the RSVP form as soon as possible so as to reserve your seats on-site. The Symposium will also be broadcasted live via online platforms for the participants who are not able to visit the venue.
