The Belgian Embassy in Seoul is organizing a series of panel discussions this spring, around various themes.

 

The main aim is to create an opportunity for Belgian and Korean organizations to come into contact with each other. In addition, we also wish to highlight the Belgian and Korean expertise and in this way encourage students, researchers and other interested parties to collaborate more with each other in the future.
