The Human Rights Management System Certification is a system in which an official certification body evaluates whether an organization’s human rights management implementation system is appropriate, implemented, and effective.

The Korea Forest Welfare Institute received the certification after being positively evaluated for establishing a human rights management declaration and policy framework, improving internal regulations and systems to prevent human rights violations, and preparing remedies for swift response in case of violations, thereby building a comprehensive human rights management system throughout the organization.

Nam Taeheon, President of the Korea Forest Welfare Institute, stated, "Obtaining the Human Rights Management System Certification is the result of our institution being recognized externally for having operated with respect for human rights as our top priority."
