On February 13th, Princeton for North Korean Human Rights (PNKHR) will host its 2016 Intercollegiate Conference! The conference will take place in Dodds Auditorium (first floor of Robertson Hall) from 10:00 AM to 3:45 PM.

The topic this year is Change in North Korea: Top Down or Bottom Up?

Many great speakers have been confirmed to speak. Our keynote speaker, Suzanne Scholte, is the President of the Defense Forum Foundation. Park Yeon-mi, a North Korean defector and human rights activist, Victor Cha (former foreign policy advisor to the White House), and Hyungjoon Won ( South Korean violinist who has spearheaded an effort to bring North and South Korean musicians together) will be our featured speakers. 

Finally, we are also excited to have Hannah Song (CEO and President of Liberty in North Korea), Nathaniel Kretchun (Senior Associate Director at InterMedia), and Koo Byoungsam (Unification Attaché at the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Washington, D.C.) address the conference.

Admission and lunch are free for everyone, and students from across the country have been invited to attend.
