ProgramsMIZY ProgramsThe MIZY Center creates and operates programs to foster the respect and equal treatment of all cultures, with the goal of harmonious coexistence for more peaceful world.
These are programs that look to find ways for youth from various cultural backgrounds to meet, understand, communicate, and work together towards a culture of peace. Art, music, world heritages, and other cultural activities aim to heighten cultural sensitivity and understanding between different cultures.
The Multicultural Education Programs also seek to help youth enhance their abilities and expertise through suitable activities and educational programs. Books, lectures, and classroom studies are not the only ways to achieve this; it can also be achieved through holding various meetings and educational experiences outside the traditional classroom, such as:
Deep-rooted World Cultural Heritage, The Trainning Program for Education in Global Citizenship, Pangaea Project-Making Friends through Cyberspace, Mizy Clubs Support, It's me! - MIZY short-term internship program,
The MIZY Center has a proud tradition of collaboration with other organizations, including foreign embassies, communities, international offices of universities, businesses, civil organizations, international NGOs, and other various organizations, along with domestic youth organizations on programs that focus on multicultural collaboration as a mutually beneficial activity for all parties.
The External Relations Programs train Korean youth and groom their talents for a globalized future. Associated with the Seoul Metropolitan Government, other international cities, domestic and international education organizations, and youth agencies, these programs address current international issues and help foster the basic attitudes of global citizens in youth:
