Help North Korean Refugees with Minwoo!

◆Why we donate for Teach North Korean Refugees Global Education Center - TNKR◆
// TNKR (탈북민 영어교육 봉사 단체)에 기부를 하는 이유
Not many people know about the reality of North Korea. Kim Jeong Eun or the nuclear weapons are not everything about this country.
If North Korean refugees can speak English, they could make a great and heartbreaking speech like Yeonmi Park (https://youtu.be/ufhKWfPSQOw) and raise awareness of the people of North Korea. She learned English at TNKR.
// 많은 사람들이 북한을 떠올릴때 김정은, 또는 세뇌당하거나 세상과 단절된 북한사람들 혹은 연변마저 떠올립니다. 북한사람들도 다같은 사람들이며 극소수를 제외하면 지금 이순간 까지도 참담한 현실을 겪고 있는 국제 난민이나 같습니다. 탈북민이 영어를 자유롭게 구사할수 있다면 https://youtu.be/ufhKWfPSQOw 영상의 박연미씨와 같이 강단에 설수 있고, 세계를 향해 목소리를 높일수 있습니다. 저희가 이번에 기부할곳으로 선정한 TNKR 은 탈북민에게 무료 영어교육을 하는 단체로서, 박연미씨가 영어를 배운 곳이기도 합니다.

During 2021, Freedom Speakers International will be focused on the "Voices from the North" project. The major activities of the project will be partnering with North Korean refugees who seek to:

* publish books in English.

* become more engaged with public speaking.

* participate in at least one English speech contest.

* speak at an international forum.

* share their insights in roundtable discussions.

If you would like to hear a variety of North Korean stories, become a monthly donor to this special project.
