The main goal is to promote the hidden history and culture of the islands from an international perspective. To achieve this, we will organize a ‘Glocal (global-local) Island School Project’ with local students. As part of this program, we will hold lectures on the islands, share ideas about island life, and introduce participants' diverse traditions and cultures to local youth through experiential education.

Participants will engage students in games, share cooking recipes, showcase traditional clothing, and demonstrate dances and songs from their home countries. Through these activities, island youth will enhance their global competence and develop a sense of pride in island life.

Additionally, we will assist socially disadvantaged local residents by delivering meals and helping elderly individuals with household chores such as home repairs and maintenance. During this process, we will listen to their stories, share our own values, and invite them to share international cuisine with us.

Finally, we will host an island promotion competition to showcase the unique values and international aspects of the islands through creative projects and social media posts.

Through these experiences, we hope that you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in diverse cultures, experience real island life, and build meaningful connections with local residents.

Hajodo (Hajo Island)
Hajoodo Island is a beautiful place in the southwest part of Korea, within Jindo region. People say that in 1816, a British colonel visited Hajodo Island and thought it was one of the most amazing places in the world. He described it as “the peak of the world, the peak of the earth.” Like this, it is well-known for breathtaking scenery with crystal-clear and sparkling beaches, and pretty coastal roads. It's a peaceful place where you can take walks, go hiking in the hills, or just sit and enjoy the view.

Did you know that there are about 3,000 islands in Korea? These islands are filled with various stories. For instance, it was an island where foreigners first visited Korea, and one of the presidents received the Nobel Peace Prize in Korea. Many people have considered islands as isolated places because they are separated from the mainland and historically seen as remote destinations. However, from a different point of view, we can consider islands as the first gateways in Korean history to accept foreign and diverse cultures. They were such open-minded places to embrace diverse cultures and values.
Here, we can discover the cultural heritage from a global-local perspective. From islands where foreign cultures were first embraced, we aim to promote global values and cultural heritage, and introduce the values brought by international volunteers to the island residents. Join us for a meaningful adventure! :)
