PPDD participating in the Folk School….

PPDD Executive Director was one of those fortunate Asian activists chosen to participate in the 2007 GAHRFS. There were 22 participants representing at least 15 countries. In as far as the folk school was concerned the participants had the chance to learn about and experience the history and process of the development of human rights and the struggle towards democracy in South Korea. This was so far a very inspiring and touching experience for everyone who was part of the said program. Another enriching experience was the country presentations of the participants on different human rights issues and concerns. The different lectures given by distinguished professors from different parts of Asia on Asian democracy and human rights and social movements were quite really interesting and very informative.
