Michelle Dang is a rising senior at Mount Holyoke College, pursuing a degree in International Relations with a particular focus on peacebuilding, dispute resolution, and transitional justice. She recently developed an interest in the discourse surrounding the mass incarceration of the North Korean people subject to intense labor prison camps and seeks to explore possible avenues for the relief of said human rights abuse. Michelle has done various policy briefs on ongoing conflicts such as the Afghanistan war in her undergrad research and looks forward to shifting gears to East Asian conflicts. She hopes to bring her unique background and insights into the work of HRNK while preparing herself for the future with what she is able to learn from the incredible scholars and staff members of HRNK.
