Capacity Building

Launched in 2020, Korea Future’s capacity building programme for North Korean exiles has equipped individuals and organisations with the knowledge and tools to document human rights violations, preserve evidence, and advocate for accountability.

We have worked with over 200 exiled North Koreans through our workshops, training, and community engagement across the two largest diaspora in South Korea and the United Kingdom. To date, we held workshops to train exiled North Korean human rights investigators, strengthening their documentation and advocacy skills, held community consultations to gather new perspectives and foster solutions, and engaged the community on issues ranging from justice to policy engagement. In 2022 and 2026, we supported a core group of emerging leaders in the diaspora through a series of human rights workshops, offering opportunities to develop leadership, organisational, and human rights skills.
