Korea Verband is a non-profit organization that emerged in 1990 from the democracy and solidarity movement for Korea. We use a variety of forms of action to campaign for human and civil rights, both in divided Korea, in Europe, and locally in the neighborhood. We question power structures from a post-colonial, feminist, and intersectional perspective and work with different target groups such as young people, adults, activists, multipliers, and political decision-makers. We are active in a variety of alliances and have a large network. One focus of their work is providing information and education about the ‘comfort women’ as well as forced prostitution and sexualised violence. In September 2020, Korea-Verband erected a Peace Statue in Berlin-Moabit and is currently fighting to preserve it.
