SUMMARY:Korea Club with Gwang-il Jung: Documenting the North Korean Gulag: The Yoduk List
DESCRIPTION:Dear Colleague: \nYou are invited to the Korea Club event on Wednesday\, May 1\, 2019. The event will feature Mr. Jung Gwang-il\, Founder and Director of “No Chain” and survivor of Political Prison Camp No. 15 in North Korea. He will share his memories of detention and his current work to keep the North Korean human rights situation in focus. Mr. Jung will share complimentary copies of his organization’s report “Yoduk List” with the participants. The report comprises a list of 180 victims of enforced disappearances whom he met while being detained at Camp No. 15. \nJung Gwang-il was a prisoner at No.15 Yodok Political Penal-labor Colony for three years\, from 1999 to 2002. He is currently one of the best-known former North Koreans involved in outreach activities aiming to expose North Korea’s human rights violations and to inform the international public opinion on the human rights situation in that country. Mr. Jung’s UN testimony was critical in passing a resolution on North Korean human rights by the UN General Assembly in the fall of 2014. He has provided testimony to UN representatives in New York City and Geneva and human rights organizations around the world. He has also been compiling lists of prisoner names in North Korea\, a rare asset in the hands of the North Korean human rights investigator. Such information will prove critical to the accountability and transitional justice process in North Korea. \n\n\n\nPROGRAM DETAILS \nThe dinner will start at 7:00 pm\, followed by the speaker’s presentation and Q & A session.
