Toward A Unified Korea: Economic Challenges And Opportunities

Toward A Unified Korea Economic Challenges And Opportunities

Economists and Korea experts from the United States and South Korea, and a former senior North Korean official who defected to South Korea in 2014, examined North Korea’s economic landscape and the challenges and prospects for reunification and economic integration in the latest virtual convening of the International Forum on One Korea on June 29, 2021.

“Engagement strategies on the peninsula toward the endgame of peaceful unification must be fostered with a Korean-led process,” Dr. Parker said. “In the near-term, efforts must first stabilize inter-Korean relations and security matters and induce the North toward a more open society with more access to information and opportunity, respecting the human rights of all.

The forum was the latest in a series of expert virtual forums in 2020 and 2021 sponsored by the Global Peace Foundation, Action for Korea United, and One Korea Foundation.
