The program featured a variety of activities, including learning about each country’s clothing, food, housing styles, holidays, hands-on craft workshops, and cultural experiences. It aimed to enhance cultural understanding of each country, with foreign members of the local multicultural group ‘Danuri’ participating as assistant instructors, thereby laying the foundation for cultural integration and multicultural coexistence in the community.

The event, in which 26 people completed the program, included a panel and exhibition of items from the Global Harmony Program, certificate awarding, a progress report video, and the presentation of excellence awards.

One graduate stated, “Through taking various classes on understanding different cultures and participating in hands-on programs for multicultural education, I was able to spend valuable time. Attending passionate classes with local residents was not only a meaningful learning experience, but also an opportunity to understand the coexistence of diversity in a multicultural society.”

An Uljugun official said, “This program provided a valuable opportunity for local residents to enhance their understanding and sensitivity toward multiculturalism. We plan to prepare various programs to further spread multicultural education and strengthen the capabilities of local multicultural instructors.”
