SUMMARY:Korea Peace Advocacy Training Session
DESCRIPTION:Registration is open to participate in Korea Peace Advocacy Week\, March 18-22. \nEvery year\, Korea Peace Advocacy Week brings hundreds of constituents from across the country to talk to their members of Congress about legislation to support peace in Korea. \nParticipants of the 2024 Korea Peace Advocacy Week will join two or three half-hour virtual meetings with Congressional staff of their representative and senators\, sharing personal stories and urging members to support legislation focused on Korean peace. \nAn online training session will be offered for all participants over Zoom during the week of March 4. \nThe intent of this national coordinated action is to urge a non-military solution to the security crisis in Korea. Participants will urge their elected officials to use diplomacy in pursuit of a binding peace agreement to formally end the Korean War. \nThis year marks the ninth year of coordinated advocacy days for the cause of peace in Korea. For the last five years\, this effort has been held online. \nKorea Peace Advocacy Week is organized by the American Friends Service Committee\, Mennonite Central Committee\, United Methodist Church – General Board of Church and Society\, and Women Cross DMZ. \nContact Echo at ec**@***********mz.org with questions. See the link for registration information.

SUMMARY:Free webinar on gendered impact of the Korean War
DESCRIPTION:Free webinar on gendered impact of the Korean War \nA webinar in observance of International Women’s Day entitled The Gendered Impact of the Korean War; Past\, Present and Future will be held Wednesday\, March 6 at 6 p.m. (CST). The event will include two feminist scholar-activists: Suzy Kim\, professor of Korean history at Rutgers University; and Na-Young Lee\, professor at Chung-Ang University (Seoul) and board chair of the Korean Council for the Justice and Remembrance for the Issues of Military Sexual Slavery by Japan. \nKim will provide a historical account of how North Korean and international women intervened during the Korean War. Lee will discuss the impact of the ongoing state of unresolved war on South Korean women\, including militarized sexual violence\, and efforts underway to hold the South Korean government and U.S. military accountable. Moderator for the event is Ji-Yeon Yuh\, a board member at Women Cross DMZ and professor at Northwestern University\, Chicago. \nThe Korean War is considered unresolved because no peace treaty hs been negotiated between the parties in the war. The war is still technically suspended by a 1953 armistice agreement. The result is that U.S. troops are still stationed in South Korea\, and South Korean and U.S. troops are engaged in watching the southern border of the DMZ.  North Koreans stake out the northern border of the DMZ. War-like incidents that cost human lives have frequently occurred between the troops on the DMZ and in disputed territorial waters off the western coast of North Korea since the armistice was signed \nRegistration is free and available at the attached link.
