About Us

Greetings

Today the world is facing a wide spectrum of security threats. North Korea is escalating the tension on the Korean Peninsula with the development of nuclear weapons and missile tests, while the maritime territorial disputes in the South and the East China Sea, China’s military modernization, Japan’s transition to a ‘normal state’ status, and economic security are also raising the military tensions within the region at the same time.

Along with these traditional security threats, the non-traditional security threats including international terrorism and climate change are threatening regional stability and world peace and creating more complex security crises. On top of all, COVID-19 is emerging as a new threat that the world has never gone through before, while the US-China competition is forming a new paradigm for international security.

In this era of self-sufficient, building trust and political-military cooperation between countries is not quite a familiar story. Nevertheless, joint cooperation between countries is essential to address acute security threats. The Institute for Global Strategy and Cooperation is established to seek ways for joint cooperation on various threats to the Korean Peninsula and to the world and to make maybe tiny, but meaningful contribution to world peace.

The Institute for Global Strategy and Cooperation has security and regional experts from various fields. Since the establishment in March 2020, the Institute for Global Strategy and Cooperation is constantly engaging in discussions for full-dimensional strategic cooperation through in-depth research activities, academic exchanges, and expert meetings with domestic and foreign institutions. The Institute for Global Strategy will continue to carry out as the utmost meaningful research activities as we can. We highly appreciate your attention and support.

Thank you.
