Korea Future is a nonprofit organisation that was established in 2019 at the request of North Korean survivors.
We advance justice by providing evidence-based insights to policymakers that drive more effective policies addressing human rights violations in North Korea.

In 2017, three years after a UN Commission of Inquiry exposed “unparalleled” atrocities in North Korea, meaningful progress toward accountability remained elusive. As global attention waned, a group of North Korean survivors approached Korea Future’s co-founders, seeking support to advance justice.
Mandated to respond, Korea Future was founded in London, home to one of the largest North Korean refugee diasporas. To translate rigorous documentation into accountability outcomes, an office was later established in The Hague, the hub of international justice.
Today, Korea Future is the leading organisation advancing justice for North Korean survivors, and remains the sole organisation that has so far secured accountability on their behalf. Through evidence-based insights, we inform governments, legal bodies, and international institutions working to hold perpetrators accountable for human rights violations in North Korea.
