Overview

What We Do

Founded in 1999 by former supporters of North Korean socialism, the Network for North Korean Democracy and Human Rights (NKnet) holds seminars, press conferences, and an International Conference on North Korean Human Rights. We publish a monthly magazine, NK Vision, and started and successfully spun off The Daily NK and Radio Free Chosun. We also do research and publish reports, hold photo exhibitions, have sent leaflets and DVDs to North Korea via balloon, and engage in movement-building activities. In Fall 2012, we will host our second North Korean Human Rights International Film Festival in Seoul.

Mission

The mission of NKnet is to contribute to the advancement of the human race through the realization of human rights and democracy in North Korea.
