Since its establishment in 1991, the Korea Foundation (KF) has been at the forefront of Korea’s public diplomacy. We have led the way in promoting the values and culture of the Republic of Korea to the international community through a wide range of initiatives, including the advancement of Korean studies, cultural and artistic exchange, and policy and knowledge exchange.
President of the Korea Foundation
In this era of rapid and profound shifts in the global order, the KF’s role is more important than ever.
We are responding by broadening our horizons of cooperation to more actively include the Global South and building global networks that connect future generations, thereby contributing to a more balanced ecosystem of international cooperation. In tandem with our
transparent organizational culture and open communication, we will continue our efforts to become a well-trusted, future-minded institution.
Domestically within Korea, we will continue to strengthen collaboration with local communities so that regional universities, local governments, and civil society can better recognize the significance of public diplomacy and join us in advancing it. In doing so, we will faithfully fulfill our mission as a leading Korean public diplomacy institution.The KF will continue to grow as an organization that widely promotes the values and potential of the Republic of Korea throughout the world. We look forward to your continued interest and support.
Thank you.
