Busan City will host the '2023 Korea Women’s International Network (KOWIN) Conference' at the Haeundae Paradise Hotel (scheduled) in early September.
KOWIN is a representative international event that has been held annually since 2001, the inaugural year of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and this year marks its 22nd edition. Busan has been given the opportunity to host the event again after 13 years, following the conference held at BEXCO in August 2010.
Due to COVID-19, the event had been conducted online, but this year it will be held in person for the first time in three years.
About 500 Korean women leaders active in various fields from around the world will gather in one place to exchange the latest trends and information, fostering unity and friendship in a meaningful setting.
The participants consist of Korean women leaders and next-generation women leaders both domestically and internationally, active in all areas including politics, economy, society, culture, and science.
The event will feature diverse programs such as ▲Opening Ceremony ▲Keynote Speeches ▲Global Women Leaders Forum ▲Local Cultural Exploration.
Especially since it is held in Busan, it is expected to create a synergy effect by securing support for the bid through program composition and operation of promotional booths aimed at attracting the 2030 Busan World Expo.
