Our mission is to protect lives and human rights of North Korean people. We strive to achieve our goal through assistance to North Korean refugees hiding in third countries and continue to assist them with their re-settlement and education in South Korea. Our ultimate goal is to support a development of a generation of successful young North Koreans who will drive toward peaceful re-unification of the two countries and will become a bridge between North and South, if the two countries unify. In supporting human rights improvements in the country, we focus on providing information about the situation inside and encouraging international community to take action against the abuses.
