Liberation in North Korea - Definition

Liberation in North Korea (LiNK for short) is a non-profit, non-partisan, non-ethnic and non-religious group formed for the to raise awareness of the human rights plight in communist North Korea.

LiNK was founded on March 27, 2004, at the Eighteenth Annual Korean American Students Conference (KASCON) held at Yale University, in New Haven, CT. It was created first to educate Korean-American students throughout the United States about the sufferings of the North Korean people and the political context in which they are situated. LiNK has since expanded and is no longer limited to Koreans, to the United States, or to college students.

LiNK has organized numerous lectures, teach-ins, screenings, forums, conferences and seminars on the North Korean human rights situation.
