To prepare for the Quadrennial Periodic Report (QPR) of Korea, government ministries including the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and local governments, the Korean National Commission for UNESCO, Arts Council Korea, and civil society organizations (CSOs) have participated. It includes substantial amount of interviews and written consultations.
The draft of the QPR of Korea on the 2005 Convention was prepared by the Korea Culture & Tourism Institute (KCTI), a national cultural policy research institute. It conducted an extensive research to identify best policies, measures, initiatives, and data related to cultural statistic. Relevant statistical data included in the QPR of Korea were prepared based on nationally approved statistics provided by the Statistics Korea (KOSTAT), and the collected measures and policy cases were evaluated by the ‘Cultural Diversity Committee’. From April to June 2022, ten workshops were held to promote participation of CSOs in the preparation of the QPR of Korea, where they shared the purpose of the 2005 Convention and discussed the CSOs’ measures and initiatives.
Based on this draft, the QPR of Korea was completed by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
Résumé exécutif:
The Republic of Korea regards UNESCO's 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions as a major value in cultural policy, and specifies it in laws, institutions and cultural policy plans. Moreover, the Republic of Korea enacted the ‘Act on the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity’ in 2014. Based on the Act, the ‘1st Basic Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity (2021-2024)’ was established in 2021. In the same year, Arts Council Korea was designated as an exclusive agency to effectively deliver cultural diversity policies throughout the society. With such agency, the Republic of Korea executes discourses and policies that focus on the protection and promotion of cultural diversity on a broader scale.
The main goal for the implementation of Korea's cultural policy and the 2005 Convention is to create a cultural ecosystem of diversity and inclusion. Particularly with the change in population composition and the growing awareness of social conflicts and discrimination in recent years, the Republic of Korea actively promotes policies to raise awareness of civil society for cultural coexistence. In addition, the Republic of Korea declares special provisions of artists’ rights, such as stipulating penalties for infringement of freedom of expressions, under the ‘Act on the Protection of Status and Rights of Artists’ from the Constitution of the Republic of Korea. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Republic of Korea is also taking the working conditions of artists and cultural professionals more seriously.
The Republic of Korea has important priorities for the following policies, which clearly align with the goals of the 2005 Convention.
1. (Governance system/Human rights and basic freedoms) For various cultures to coexist, reinforce policies on managing cultural diversity data, educating cultural diversity values, and ensuring accessibility (such as barrier-free and media literacy) of immigrants and minorities for cultural participation. Particularly through the enactment of the ‘Act on the Support for Cultural and Artistic Activities of Artists With Disabilities' in 2020, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism actively supports artists with disabilities in numerous areas such as their creative activities, international exchanges, and standard performance theater.
2. (The mobility of artists and cultural professionals) In 2021, the 'Act on the Protection of Status and Rights of Artists' was enacted to legally protect the freedom of artistic expression, protect and promote professional rights, and create gender equality in art environment. Based on the 'Artist Welfare Act' in 2011, policies such as living stabilization fund loans and employment insurance for artists were promoted from 2019.
3. (Balance in production and distribution of cultural goods and services)
In response to changes in the production, consumption, and distribution of cultural goods and services in the digital environment, the ‘Non-contact Cultural Strategy for a Warm and Connected Society’ policy was promoted in 2020. This policy aims to reduce the gap in culture and art participation, and to alleviate social loneliness. Moreover, protection and supports for endangered or marginalized dialects, independent arts, and traditional culture were expanded.
4. (Sustainable development frameworks) the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism continues to support international mobility of artists and cultural professionals, and fosters development of projects for cultural and creative industries (CCI) in developing countries. It also voluntarily contributes to trust funds, and expands cultural exchanges with third-world countries.

Establishment of the 1st Basic Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity

Décrivez les principales caractéristiques de la politique/mesure:
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has to establish a basic policy plan to strategically implement the 2005 Convention in accordance with Article 6 of the Act on the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity (enacted in 2014), and announce it after the approval and deliberation by the Cultural Diversity Committee under Article 7 of the Act. Although the Cultural Diversity Committee was stipulated to be under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister at the time of enactment in 2014, the Act on the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity was amended to organize the Cultural Diversity Committee under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in 2020. With the formation of the first Cultural Diversity Committee under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in February 2021, it became possible to establish a basic plan.
Accordingly, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism established the 1st Basic Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity(2021-2024) in cooperation with 10 related ministries including the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and the Ministry of Justice. It was officially announced in May 2021 after deliberation by the 1st Cultural Diversity Committee. As a result, Korea established a cross-ministerial cooperation policy plan for the implementation of the 2005 Convention for the first time.
The 1st Basic Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity presented ‘a cultural nation of creativity and innovation through cultural diversity’ as a policy vision, reflecting the social and cultural environment of the post COVID-19. There are four core values: correcting discrimination and raising awareness (respecting identity), cultural participation and accessibility (accessibility/inclusion), diversity of cultural expressions (creativity/antitrust), and mutual cultural exchange (openness/reciprocity). The plan presents three promotion strategies, seven core tasks, 18 promotion tasks, and 51 detailed tasks. This basic plan is particularly meaningful as it contains a wide range of policies to achieve the major objectives of the 2005 Convention. The policies have diverse measures including improving access to cultural facilities and media for the underprivileged residents with migrant background or with disabilities, realizing linguistic diversity by preserving dialects and expanding support for special languages (braille and sign language), revitalizing the traditional cultural industry ecosystem and expand cultural urban regeneration, promoting international exchange of contents with cultural professionals and support for the cultural sectors in developing countries, expanding cultural content diversity through support for minor genres such as independent arts and independent publishing, and educating and raising awareness of cultural diversity.

In order to establish the 1st basic plan for cultural diversity, a private-sector advisory committee on major policy agendas was formed, and the direction of policy implementation tasks was set, reflecting the opinions of the advisors, to faithfully incorporate the opinions of private experts on the plan.
In addition, in order to apply public-private governance, the basic plan was confirmed after deliberation by the Cultural Diversity Committee, which consisted of 10 vice-ministerial level officials from 10 related ministries and 10 private experts in each field such as culture, tradition, art, and media.
For the faithful implementation of the basic plan, related ministries and all metropolitan and local governments (17) establish 'Cultural Diversity Protection and Promotion Implementation Plan' annually. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is striving to promote inter-ministerial cooperation, and cooperation between the central government and local governments by overseeing the establishment and implementation of implementation plans of related institutions.

Cultural Impact Assessment
Nom de l’agence chargée de la mise en œuvre de la politique/mesure:
Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Korea Culture & Tourism Institute
Décrivez les principales caractéristiques de la politique/mesure:
Cultural impact assessment is a policy assessment based on the Framework Act on Culture, which prescribes the rights of the citizens and the responsibilities of the State concerning culture. It is a system that evaluates the impact of public policies planned by the central and local governments on the quality of life of the citizens from a cultural perspective, and is promoted with the aim of ‘spreading the social value of culture.’
Cultural impact assessment began in earnest in 2014, the year after the introduction of the grounding clause in the ｢Framework Act on Culture｣. After a pilot assessment, the main annual assessment has been carried out since 2016. The main purposes of the cultural impact assessment are social acceptability through the implementation of public policies that considers cultural influences, sustainable growth, spread of cultural values through 'policy culturalization', and improvement of people's cultural competence and quality of life. In order to evaluate the impact of public policy on the people from a cultural perspective, the evaluation area was divided into three categories: basic cultural rights, cultural identity, and cultural development. Each area consists of two evaluation indicators. One of the evaluation indicators for cultural development is the "impact of public policy on cultural diversity." This evaluates the influence relationship on whether the planned policy project affects the cultural uniformity of the region or the cultural activities of local minority groups, and whether the policy project leaves room for marginalized groups in cultural consumption.
Based on its purpose, the cultural impact evaluation is divided into self-assessment and professional assessment. The self-assessment is divided into diagnostic evaluation and abbreviated evaluation, and the professional assessment is divided into basic evaluation, in-depth evaluation, and strategic evaluation. The self-evaluation is done by a central or local government official using a checklist to self-examine the impact of the planned public policy on culture. The professional evaluation is utilized to evaluate the cultural impact of public policy conducted by a third-party with expertise.

In 2014 and 2015, nine public policy plans were assessed through pilot projects. The system began in earnest from 2016 to 2020, carrying out 146 evaluations, with a total of 155 evaluations of public policy. In each type of evaluation target, 74 cases for urban regeneration projects, 45 cases for cultural city and specialized projects, 13 cases for cultural heritage restoration and utilization projects, and 23 cases for other projects were carried out.
So far, six government ministries and 142 local governments, including the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Cultural Heritage Administration, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and the Small and Medium Business Administration have participated. In order to conduct their own assessment, local governments including Seoul Special Metropolitan City, Gyeonggi province, Gyeongsangnam province, ChangWon-City, and Busan Metropolitan City have enacted related ordinances and conducted their own cultural impact assessments. The Seoul Special Metropolitan City conducted a self-evaluation of a total of four cases from 2018 to 2019, Gyeonggi Province a total of seven cases from 2018 to 2020, and ChangWon City conducted one case in 2020.

With the start of the main assessment in 2016, the cultural impact assessment system achieved positive progress in pre-diagnosing, considering, and applying cultural influences, including cultural diversity, to major policies and projects of six ministries and 142 local governments. However, as the scale of the cultural impact assessment system and the types of public policies subject for evaluation are diversified, it is time to develop specialized indicators, refine and systematize evaluation methods, and improve the evaluation guidelines for each type.

Décrivez les principales caractéristiques de la politique/mesure:
Based on the Broadcasting Act, the Korea Communications Commission manages media diversity by maintaining fairness, publicity, diversity, balance, and realism of channels and programs. Since 2009, the Media Diversity Committee has been established and operated to protect the diversity of public opinion in broadcasting (Article 35-4 of the Broadcasting Act), and since 2018, the committee has been providing broadcast statistics such as broadcasting media usage behavior survey and broadcasting market competition evaluation via the broadcasting statistics portal, Mediastat. The committee has been also providing current status of viewing share by broadcaster to enhance media diversity, but from 2021, it has been providing detailed TV viewing records and N-Screen (Smartphone, PC, VOD) viewing records for each broadcast program to increase the utilization of the industry and academia.
The viewership share survey and calculation, which is the main project of media diversity promotion, is calculated by adding the viewer share of related parties to the viewer share of broadcasters every year. For daily newspapers, the subscription rate is converted into viewer share and added to the corresponding broadcaster. The calculated results are announced every year through the decision of the 'Media Diversity Committee' and the 'Korea Communications Commission'. The current viewership share has been calculated and announced up until 2020.
After the development of index to use as a base factual data for media diversity in 2014 and 2015, The Korea Communications Commission and its affiliated organization, the Korea Broadcast Advertising Promotion Agency, have been conducting the annual ｢Media Diversity Survey｣ since 2016. Since the index is modified by collecting the opinions of the Media Diversity Committee, it has propensity to change slightly from year to year. In the ｢Media Diversity Survey｣, media diversity is judged by the ‘Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI)' and the representation of media program content compared to reality.
The 2016~2019 survey investigated the platforms, channels, and programs on the diversity of channel composition, diversity of the owners, diversity of supply sectors, diversity of organization and content, and the audience perception. Diversity in terms of supply, such as the ownership entity and organization, was examined through the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), and diversity in regards to content was examined by comparing the degree of representation to reality on the distribution status of gender, age, occupation, and disability of the characters in dramas, news, entertainment shows, and investigative report programs. In 2020, the survey on the usage aspects(viewership) of media operators was intensified.

Since 2011, the viewership share of broadcasters has been surveyed and calculated every year. After surveying and calculating the viewing share of 425 channels of 294 broadcasting companies in 2020, it showed that they all satisfied the viewership share caps of less than 30%.
According to the 2021 Media Diversity Survey, dramas had more male characters (57.2%) than female characters (42.8%), with 77.8% aged between 15-29 and 30-49, and 99.6% without disabilities. As for the sociocultural characteristics of news, there were more male (71.9%) cast members than that of females (28.1%), with 87.0% aged between 30-49 and 50-69, and 99.9% without disabilities. As a response to a survey of viewers’ perception on fewer number of female cast members compared to the actual proportion of women in reality, 41.8% of TV viewers and 35.8% of TV news viewers perceived that ‘There is not’(not appearing less).

The Community Radio Project Based on Local Community

The Community Radio Project is a non-profit radio broadcasting targeting small areas such as cities, counties, and districts with a small power of less than 10W in the FM frequency band. As of 2021, 20 community radio broadcasting operators have been newly licensed and are operating in 27 regions nationwide.
During the tenure of the 19th President (President Moon Jae-In), one of the 100 national projects presented was ‘healthy development of media’, and the expansion of community radio was included as a detailed task. Particularly with COVID-19, the importance of community radio broadcasting was reinforced. While it is difficult to deliver local community news in a timely manner on national public radio, community radio broadcasting is suitable for conveying local issues, events, and news as it is closely connected with the community. There are cases when community radio broadcasting transmitted emergency safety information effectively during COVID-19. Gwanak FM has sent out breaking news of the COVID-19 outbreak in Gwanak-gu. Daegu Seongseo FM effectively provided the current status of face mask inventory at local pharmacies in real time.
Since community radio broadcasting is a non-profit that is operated based on the public interest of the local community, it is operated by local citizens to deal with diverse issues in the community. It also serves as a place for public discussion for residents' autonomy. For reference, ‘broadcasting programs in regards to reporting’ cannot be scheduled, and only broadcasting programs such as local information, culture, and music may be transmitted based on Article 50 -2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Broadcasting Act.
It is also effective in enhancing digital accessibility for the underprivileged because community radio broadcasting can easily provide community information to underprivileged groups such as the elderly, the disabled, and immigrants who are not familiar with new media such as social media. In addition, the participation rate of residents with various backgrounds is high because local residents can share stories about themselves or their neighborhood. Representatively, there is the ‘Korean-Corporation (Koryoin Village)’ in Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju City, which was newly approved in 2021. It organized a Russian language program because Koryoin compatriots and descendants who moved to Korea are participants of the program and are the main audience. ‘Ansan Community’, a division based in Ansan-City, Gyeonggi province, has a high proportion of residents with migrant backgrounds. They are also planning a program targeting migrants from various cultures.

Ever since it changed into a regular business in 2009, community radio broadcasting has been operating in seven regions nationwide up until 2020. In 2021, a total of 27 community radio broadcasts will be operated nationwide with additional permits from operators in 20 regions. Specifically, there are ten metropolitan areas such as Seoul and Gyeonggi province, two in GangWon province, four in Chungcheong province, seven in Gyeongsang province, and four in Honam province.
In addition, for the operation of community radio broadcasting, the ‘Community Radio Broadcasting Support Group’ was formed to establish a cooperative system with local business operators. The support group consists of government ministries (Korea Communications Commission, Science and Technology Information and Communication Commission, Ministry of Public Administration and Security), public institutions (Viewer Media Foundation), and private organizations (six institutions including Korea Community Radio Broadcasting Association, Korea Broadcasting Engineers Association).
At the national level, the Korea Communications Commission made an announcement to expand the policy of revitalizing community radio to strengthen media publicity and improve disaster broadcasting response systems. At the regional level, in order to revitalize the operation of community radio, programs that meet the needs of local residents are programmed and transmitted, and community radio broadcasting programs are posted on YouTube to promote close communication with local residents.

Korean independent and artistic films are well received by audiences and critics for their cinematic quality. Nevertheless, there is a severe imbalance in promotion, marketing and distribution, with more than 25% of the annual production of independent and art films (about 1,000 films) excluded from screening opportunities. Especially with the COVID-19 pandemic, the movie consumption behavior has quickly shifted from movie theaters to online-based such as VOD and OTT. This raised the need to establish an online platform to improve the distribution environment, to support production costs for independent and art films, as well as to operate a dedicated theater.
Accordingly, in 2019, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced a plan to build a public online platform through the ｢Korean Film Industry Development Plan｣ to respond to the issues of audience access to independent and art films (expanding audience’s choice) and decreasing opportunities for creators to perform. In addition, Korean Film Council newly organized a budget for ‘Comprehensive Support for Distribution of Independent and Art Films’ in 2020 and opened ‘Indieground’, a public distribution platform for independent and art films.
Indieground, which is entrusted to The Association of Korean Independent Film & Video, improves the distribution environment of Korean independent and art films, and operates with the aim of spreading social value of independent and art films and establishing a network hub. Indieground creates an information database (DB) of independent and art films, and operates a Library which holds free community screenings 240 times a year. The films screened by community screening receive alternative screening opportunity to plan, promote, and screen in various local screening venues, including general theaters. Among the films stored in the Library, the ones with educational, cultural, and social values will be selected as ‘independent films recommended for youth’ to increase accessibility of independent and art films to young people. Indieground also promotes various support to revitalize independent and art films, focusing on public online platforms such as ‘Curating’ service that introduces customized films and ‘Independent Film Matching Workshop’ that serves as a business matching program to establish a network between emerging creators and distributors.

Indieground archives and curates various works to spread the social value of independent and art films. First, the independent and art film DB has information data on about 4,112 independent and art films produced in Korea between 1990 and 2022. It provides data of directors, actors, staff, production companies, distributors, release dates, genres, running times, synopsis, media channel information (Naver, Watcha, TVing, etc.). The Independent Film Library examines the films submitted through public contest, selects them as ‘Independent Film Library Selection’, then sequentially screens them on the online platform. For the distribution on other online platforms, Indieground supports the development of affiliated promotions, community screenings, and promotion on development of films. A total of 70 films in 2020 and 87 films in 2021 were selected.
A community screening is a distribution program that provides selected films from Independent Film Library in theaters and other venues (neighborhood cafes, bookstores, village halls, galleries, etc.). It curates the films from ‘Independent Film Library Selection’ and holds an online screening. As of 2022, five curated films will be screened under the theme of ‘Fun Against All Barriers in the World’, and six online screenings will be held under the theme of ‘Confession Diaries’.
In order to support youth educational activities using independent films as a medium, ‘Independent Films Recommended for Youth’ are selected out of ‘Independent Film Library Selection’ based on educational, cultural, and social values. Then the selected films are categorized as family, inter-Korean relations, labor, villages, media, literature, gender equality, human rights, housing, youth, and the environment to support the screening and to provide educational materials. Additionally, a matching program between emerging creators and independent art film distributors, the ‘Independent Film Matching Workshop: First Link’ contest project, has been operating since 2021. It has supported 12 films in 2021, and 15 films in 2022.

As the COVID-19 pandemic has added significant restrictions and difficulties to art activities such as face-to-face performances and exhibitions, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has tried to expand support for new ways of non-face-to-face art by breaking away from fixed frames and inertia through the digital transformation and distribution platform of the performing arts. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced the ｢Measures to support non-face-to-face arts in daily life of COVID-19｣(Sep 2020) to respond to the crisis in the performing arts industry after the COVID-19 pandemic, investing 3.15 Billion Won in 2021 for a video recording and documentation project of the outstanding performances of Seoul Arts Center, National Theater of Korea, and The National Theater Company of Korea.
Even before the outbreak of COVID-19, the Seoul Arts Center has launched SAC on Screen (hereinafter referred to as SoS) in 2013, which is a video recording and documentation project for performances and exhibition content of the Seoul Arts Center, under the slogan of ‘Better than a VIP seat’. Through the Korea Culture and Arts Center Association and the Overseas Culture Promotion Agency, the project distributes videos of opera, ballet, classical music, music, theater, modern dance, musicals, and exhibitions free of charge domestically and abroad in order to expand cultural opportunities for residents, and to bridge the cultural gap between Seoul and other provinces. In Korea, the videos were distributed to art centers, cinemas, libraries, and schools nationwide. In overseas, the films are screened at Korean cultural centers in about 10 countries including Brazil, Spain, Argentina, Egypt, and Zimbabwe.
The Seoul Arts Center has maintained free distribution as part of cultural welfare for the underprivileged. However after COVID-19, the video recording and documentation of performances have attracted attention as a new profit model. Around 2019, the Seoul Arts Center has been attempting paid screenings. Accordingly, the musical was screened in New York, the United States, and Tokyo, Japan. In Korea, it was screened 287 times in 18 Megabox theaters nationwide. Also, by selling performance content such as musical and through LGU+, video content was distributed through new platforms such as IPTV VOD service.

Furthermore, the Seoul Arts Center contributed to the overseas expansion of Korean performing arts through the collaboration of King Sejong Institute and the existing performance content distributors to 234 locations in 82 countries.
In response to the closure of national and public performance halls due to the spread of COVID-19 in 2020, the National Theater of Korea implemented the ‘Nearest National Theater’ project. Through the National Theater of Korea YouTube channel and NaverTV, the entire live performance of the representation repertoire was streamed online. Further, a 4K UHD high-quality live performance video of the National Theater of Korea was produced and distributed through the collaboration with OTT(Content Wave) and movie theaters(Lotte Cultureworks) in 2021. In addition, the rights to enjoy culture for people with disabilities were expanded by producing and distributing barrier-free performance videos with sign languages, subtitles, and audio commentary.
Meanwhile, the National Theater Company of Korea recognized the necessity of video production of performance as a self-rescue measure for the reduced number of theater visitors due to the spread of COVID-19, and for the expansion of profits and eased accessibility of performing arts. Accordingly, the newly appointed art director in 2020 announced a new project to open the National Theater of Korea’s OTT platform ’Online Theater’, which officially became available in November 2021. In particular, some of the contents from the National Theater of Korea’s Online Theater provide barrier-free options such as sign languages, descriptive video service, and subtitles for everyone to enjoy.

The Culture and Arts Policy in 2018 established Culture Vision 2030 and the New Art Policy based on the governance of public-private cooperation in May 2018. These mid-to-long-term plans are of great significance in the fact that they have moved away from the traditional methods that have been led by the government and established under the advice of private advisors. The plans have been organized and operated by private experts centered on TF to manage the entire process, including the basic direction of the plan, the policy vision, the setting of strategic tasks, the detailed tasks, and the development of projects.
For Culture Vision 2030, the public-private cooperation body of ‘New Culture Policy Preparatory Group’ and ‘New Art Policy Establishment TF’ were organized for the New Art Policy. The opinions of the people were actively reflected through regional discussions, forums, conferences, and online public proposals.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has been promoting cultural diversity expansion project (formerly the Rainbow Bridge Project) since 2012 in order to raise awareness of cultural diversity in Korean society and create an environment for cultural diversity led by civil society organizations. The Cultural Diversity Expansion Project is to support the expansion of cultural expression opportunities, mutual communication, and exchanges of various cultural subjects according to nationality, generation, and gender in the local community. In particular, it aims to spread the value of cultural diversity by enhancing the cultural rights of minorities and the people's receptiveness to other cultures.
The project promotion plan for the aforementioned project is established by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Arts Council Korea, the exclusive agency of the project, oversees the project operation and selects a lead organization from regional cultural public institutions across the country. The selected organizations are given project expenses based on the size of the project (awareness of cultural diversity and spread of values, provision of human resources and materials for cultural diversity, protection of cultural rights for minorities, mutual exchange between minorities or between minority and majority). It provides various educational programs necessary for planning and carrying out projects, and supports the establishment of networks between the lead organizations. Regional organizations promote projects by utilizing cultural resources such as cultural infrastructure, cultural and artistic groups, artists, and cultural professionals in the region. There are around 25 regions participating in every year.
The organizers plan regional-specific projects through a council and working groups composed of various cultural subjects (citizens), and operate year-round projects based on a cooperative system with them. They are also taking the lead in spreading awareness of cultural diversity in the region by planning and operating a week-long ‘Cultural Diversity Week’ from the World Cultural Diversity Day (May 21), designated by the United Nations. Article 11 of the ‘Act On The Protection And Promotion Of Cultural Diversity' designates the week from May 21 to May 27 as Cultural Diversity Week. Accordingly, during this period, the regional organizers of the cultural diversity expansion project, as well as relevant institutions such as the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Arts Council Korea, will promote various cultural events such as forums, discussions, film festivals, and exhibitions to spread cultural diversity values.

The cultural diversity expansion project contributes to the creation of a culture of coexistence by promoting communication and exchange between cultures, and enhancing the understanding and acceptability of other cultures through a civic consciousness and respect for cultural differences in nationality, generation, gender, and physical conditions.Representative programs are as follows. First, orchestras and choirs with various local residents project and cultural diversity festivals project provide opportunities to form consensus among residents of different cultural backgrounds. Second, there are projects for migrants, people with disabilities, and foreign nationals like migrant radio channels and publication of newsletter, and a theater festival organized and performed by families with disabilities. These provide opportunities for expression to the culturally underprivileged in the region. Third, there are projects that support policy activities such as holding a policy discussion forum for local residents to form a basis for promoting cultural diversity policies in the region, organizing a policy council in which local government officials, cultural activists, and citizens participate, and enacting local cultural diversity ordinances.
The number of participants in the project increased from 249,918 in 2018 to 291,036 in 2021. Although it dropped to 83,324 people in 2020, right after the outbreak of COVID-19, the detailed program operation method of the project was switched to online, which served as an opportunity to expand access to more participants.
More than 200 programs are carried out annually, and around 200,000 local citizens participate in the programs. As of 2021, the participants’ awareness of cultural diversity increased by about 18% after participating in the program, their understanding of the concept and value of cultural diversity increased by 35.4%, and their will to practice the value of cultural diversity increased by 17.7%.

Although the cultural diversity expansion project has shown achievements in expanding the cultural diversity policy foundation and raising cultural diversity awareness in the local community, there are still differences in the understanding of cultural diversity protection and promotion policies between local citizens and local government policy makers. Thus, it is necessary to examine the implementation methods to enhance the effectiveness of the project.

Although the mobility of artists and cultural professionals between countries and international cultural exchange was extremely important, it was difficult to obtain their information about international cultural exchanges. Accordingly, the Korea Foundation for International Culture Exchange, an institution in charge of international cultural exchange, established the ‘K-Culture Road (Munhwa-ro)’, which is a comprehensive information system for international cultural exchange in 2019. The ‘K-Culture Road (Munhwa-ro)’ is expected to contribute to the revitalization of international cultural exchanges by providing integrated information to cultural professionals, related organizations, and private organizations.

As such, there are 39 institutions under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism that link information on international cultural exchange projects with public data on the cultural portal. They also provide global cultural trend information through overseas correspondents in 42 countries. Various international cultural exchange information is classified by exchange status, exchange support, exchange knowledge, exchange institutions, exchange policies, and East Asian cultural cities. For convenience, the status of international cultural exchange projects is categorized by region, type, institution, and year.
In addition, there are 478 public sector exchange groups registered in the system including governments and institutions, international organizations and NGOs, performance facilities, museums, and art galleries. There are also 1,577 domestic and overseas private sector exchange groups including associations, foundations, performance halls, museum, and art galleries. They contain the main results of the survey on the status of international cultural exchange conducted for domestic cultural exchange institutions and organizations, providing various status information such as major exchange countries, exchange purpose, exchange type, exchange genre, exchange method, and difficulties.

As the lack of information in global expansion raised concerns in the 2015 content industry survey, the Korea Creative Content Agency built a content export marketing platform, ‘WelCon’, in 2016. It is an integrated information system that allows users to understand content export information at a glance. The WelCon services can be broadly divided into event & business information, export information, and business. Each division consists of domestic and international content events, market information and business matching support, integrated information on local content market trends and buyers, and business consulting services for global expansion. As the spread of COVID-19 made it difficult for domestic content companies to expand globally in 2020, the WelCon newly launched a marketplace service in 2022.
WelCon is a service that provides various services and information for content companies wishing to advance overseas with export capability diagnosis, global expansion consultation, project supports, and events news. It provides information on global expansion of contents that are scattered in 14 related organizations, such as Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) and Korea Culture and Tourism Institute, at once.
WelCon also consults content’s global expansion, and provides information on content market with high global influence in the genres like broadcasting, animation, character, game, cartoon, publication, and music. For companies that are planning to expand overseas, WelCon provides various services such as export capability diagnosis, overseas expansion consultation, and information on open calls or support offerings. The Marketplace, which launched in 2022, is an online marketing platform to support the business and marketing activities of content exporters, where online direct exchange and business matching between domestic content companies and overseas buyers occur.
As a reference, the Korea Creative Content Agency is promoting about 11 international cooperation projects, including the WelCon service.

The service provides support for application for participation, directory book, and biz matching. KOCCA-hosted events include K-Contents Expo and K-Contents Biz Week. For international markets supported by KOCCA, the service provides support for information on overseas market participation in various fields such as broadcasting, animation, games, immersive content, characters, music, and fashion.
Secondly, the ‘Export Information’ program provides insights on domestic content and overseas market trends through K-content news, export support business, overseas market analysis by genre, international trend information, and customized curation service. As for the ‘Business’ program, it provides professional consulting by an advisory group by genre, field, and country in areas like law, intellectual property rights, taxation, finance (investment), marketing, and start-up. The business program is largely divided into consultation for overseas expansion and diagnosis of export capability, and supports the preparation process for domestic content companies' global expansion. From 2022, a newly launched marketplace provides services for domestic content companies and overseas buyers to interact directly through the platform.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has designated a statutory cultural city based on Article 15 of the 「Regional Culture Promotion Act」 in order to enhance cultural creativity by effectively utilizing cultural resources unique to each region since 2019. In 2014, the legal basis was prepared, and in 2018, a roadmap for promoting a cultural city was established. It was announced that 30 regions would be designated nationwide as cultural cities from 2019 to 2022. The policy vision of the cultural city is to ‘sustainable regional development through culture and the spread of the cultural life of local citizens’, and the main goals are revitalization of local communities, balanced regional development, sustainable growth through culture, and enhancement of social innovation.
Based on the 「Regional Culture Promotion Act」, local governments applying for statutory cultural city can select themes by historical traditions, arts, cultural industries, social culture, and local autonomy. The theme is officially designated through a total of five steps. First, if it applies for a designation as a cultural city (step 1), the region undergoes review and approval by the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism (step 2), and promotes a preliminary project as a cultural city for one year (step 3). The Cultural City Deliberation Committee reviews the preliminary project operation (step 4), and the final statutory cultural city is designated (step 5). For the regions designated as cultural cities, up to 10 Billion Won of government expenditure and up to 10 Billion Won in local expenses are provided for five years.
An important factor in promoting the cultural city project is a local citizen-centered governance. Accordingly, the central government supports local governments to establish a ‘comprehensive plan for regional cultural development' from a cultural point of view, aiming to form regional and citizen-centered governance rather than top-down support centered on the central government. To this end, the central government establishes a cooperative system between the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Cultural City Review Committee, a public-private consultative body, and the Cultural City Support Center, a private organization. The local government will establish a cultural city promotion committee, a public-private partnership, a cultural city promotion organization system, and a citizen organization.

In 2019, seven regions were designated as the first culture city. Consequently, five regions were designated as the second cultural city in January 2021 and six regions as the third cultural city in December 2021. 18 regions became statutory cultural cities. In order to designate the fourth cultural city in 2022, 16 regions are conducting preliminary cultural city projects for a year. Among the regions designated as cultural cities, Cheongju City of Chungbuk province and Pohang City of Gyeongbuk province in 2020, Seogwipo City of Jeju, Wonju City of Gangwon province, and Wanju County of Jeonbuk province in 2021 were rated as excellent cities in performance achievement.
Representative examples and results are as follows.
1. Seogwipo City and Cheongju City contributed to the creation of urban brands such as 'noji culture' and 'record culture' respectively by utilizing the unique cultural resources of the region. For reference, noji culture is a word newly created for this cultural city project to show the village's culture as is.
2. Out of 12 Cultural Cities (1st,2nd), a total of 685 cultural spaces have been created since 2020, serving as a base for the cultural enjoyment of local citizens.
3. The cumulative number of participations in the Cultural City is 1,078,060, which has a great influence on the actual local citizens. The satisfaction level of participants for each city's representative projects is high, an average of 86.7%.
4. In the case of Wonju City and Wanju City, governance through culture was implemented by preparing various discussions centered on local citizens.
5. Pohang City collaborated with the Urban Regeneration New Deal Project by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to convert an idle space into a complex cultural space. Gangneung City promoted cultural exchange programs between regions in cooperation with Yeongdeungpo-gu. Those association projects have become the engine of the cultural city project.

The culture voucher (integrated cultural pass) is a project to provide cultural service exchange vouchers worth 110,000 Won per person per year (as of 2022) to financially underprivileged groups. The project has been expanding through increasing the range of uses of the culture voucher (culture, travel, and sports viewing), the amount of support per person in 2017–2021, and the number of beneficiaries in 2022 (100% beneficiary rate). In the meantime, the culture voucher program has been focusing on improving the convenience of use in 2015 (issued per household per person), improving the accessibility of issuance and use for minorities (the elderly, the disabled, etc.) in 2018, enhancing the convenience of recharging (ARS) in 2019, and launching the mobile app and start auto recharging in 2021. As the medium for cultural enjoyment has shifted from analog to digital after COVID-19, the project is working to discover and expand the use of culture vouchers online (OTT, music, and e-books).
Currently, the culture voucher is issued through 'Culture Nuri Card', which can be used in about 25,000 franchises nationwide. It provides 110,000 Won per person to basic living recipients and the near-poverty groups aged 6 and above.
As for the project promotion system, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism establishes the policy direction and basic plan, and Arts Council Korea oversees the project operation. The local governments and the designated offices for each city and province operate the project with project expenses, Culture Nuri Card issuance, and franchise management.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism continues to make efforts to strengthen cultural capabilities based on its own culture and traditions through projects such as ‘Enhancing Cultural Resource Capabilities in Developing Countries’, ‘Culture and Arts ODA’, ‘Cultivating Human Resources in Overseas Arts’ and ‘Creating Overseas Small Libraries’. Among them, the Cultural ODA is a program for training and capacity building centered on the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to strengthen cultural capabilities of developing countries through sharing experiences in Korea's cultural development. The Cultural ODA project aims ① to contribute to the implementation of cultural development and sustainable development goals in the recipient country by transferring Korea's cultural development experience, ② to diversify exchanges and strengthen two ways international cooperation using culture.
A representative project of the Cultural ODA is ‘Cultural Partnership Invitation’ project, a project to strengthen cultural resources in developing countries since 2005. Initially, it invited promising professionals in the fields of culture, arts, cultural industry, and media from developing countries to receive practical training, co-creation, and cultural experience at cultural specialized institutions for 3 to 5 months. From 2020, cultural administrator training was also conducted to strengthen the capacity of government officials in developing countries to promote their own cultural industries. In addition, the Cultural and Art Education (ODA) project was carried forward in 2013. The Korea Culture and Arts Education Service, a public institution under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, provided cultural arts education planning and methodological lectures for local teachers and preliminary teachers in the partner countries. For local children and youth, art education was provided in various fields such as theatre, literature, and crafts.
The Cultural Partnership project contributed to establishing sustainable partnership with the ODA recipient countries and enhancing national image based on two-way cultural exchanges instead of unilateral spread of Hallyu by conducting professional training and following-up projects to meet local needs. In addition, the Cultural and Art Education (ODA) project has been promoted in cooperation with Vietnam since 2013 and Indonesia since 2018, contributing to expanding the base of cultural and art education in the recipient countries.

South Korea's Cultural ODA budget continued to expand from 2012, providing more cultural ODA compared to Japan in 2014 and 2015, and providing the third-largest cultural ODA after Japan and France in 2018. The ratio of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's budget to the total ODA budget in Korea has continued to increase to 0.45% (11.97 Billion Won) in 2018, 0.49% (13.52 Billion Won) in 2019, and 0.46% (14.36 Billion Won) in 2020. However, due to the domestic situation including financial deterioration after COVID-19, the budget for 2021 slightly decreased to 0.23% (7.87 Billion Won). When looked at the ratio of the budget for cultural ODA into the fields of culture, sports, and tourism, it can be seen that the sports sector had the highest budget ratio for 2018-2020. However, the cultural sector had the highest ratio at 52.5% in 2021.

However, a follow-up investigation is needed to determine the extent to which the academic performance of the participants in capacity building ultimately contributes to the commercialization of the local cultural and the creative sector.

The Korean government enacted the Artists Welfare Act in 2011 to legally protect the professional status and rights of artists, to promote the creative activities of artists, and to contribute to artistic development by providing artists with welfare support services. Also based on Article 10 of the same Act, ‘Korean Artists Welfare Foundation’ was established in 2012. The foundation has provided systematic and comprehensive support for the welfare of artists and improved the environment for the promotion of creative activities of artists.
It was after the artist blacklist incident in 2016 that the higher demand was raised for securing the professional status and rights of artists within the fields of art and culture. In the following year, the 19th President (Moon Jae-in government) responded to this and one of the 100 national projects reflected 'ensuring the creative rights of artists and creating a fair ecosystem for the cultural industry'. In order to protect the freedom of artistic expression and the professional status and rights of artists as stipulated in the Constitution of the Republic of Korea, and as a follow up measure to prevent the recurrence of exclusion from public support in the fields of art and culture, related discussion began in 2017 and the Act on the Protection of Status and Rights of Artists, (hereinafter referred to as the Act on the Status and Rights of Artists) was enacted in 2021. The main points of the Act are protecting the freedom of expression of artists, protecting and promoting the professional rights of artists, and creating a gender equal creative environment. The law also stipulates that artists can organize associations of artists in order to protect their own status and rights.
The Korean Artists Welfare Foundation is promoting a project to build a creative safety net for artists based on the Artists Welfare Act and the Act on the Status and Rights of Artists. The main projects of the foundation are the creative empowerment project and the vocational empowerment project. In addition to basic creative activity support projects, they also operate a reporting and counseling center for unfair practices (2017), a sexual violence reporting and counseling center for artists (2018), and a reporting and counseling service for breach of written contract (2020). In addition, they introduced occupational health and safety insurance (2012) and employment insurance system (2020) for artists to protect the professional rights of artists. Currently, a loan support project (2019) is being promoted to stabilize the lives of artists.

In order to participate in the projects run by Korean Artists Welfare Foundation, artists as professionals must obtain a certificate for artistic careers. Since COVID-19, the number of artists who have completed artistic career certification increased greatly from 57,417 in 2018 to 129,450 in 2021. The number of artists who have been issued with artist pass after completing artistic career certification also increased from 58,125 in 2018 to 114,667 in 2021.
The Creative Fund Support Project has been running since 2015 and provides necessary funds (3 Million Won per person) for artists who are experiencing economic hardship. Since then, a total of 57,798 artists have received the fund support until 2021. The Artist Dispatch Support Project-Art Road is a project that supports collaboration between artists and local society so that artists can solve issues of companies, institutions, and villages through their artistic capabilities. So far, around 1,000 artists are being supported every year. Since 2020, a regional project is established, supporting local artists by building a cooperative system with eight regional cultural foundations (Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, Daejeon, Chungbuk, Jeonbuk, Jeonnam, and Gyeongnam).
In supporting child care of artists, Daehak-ro Bandi Care Center (Jongno-gu) opened in 2014 and Artists Child Care Center (Mapo-gu) in 2017. The purpose of the centers is to reduce the burden of childcare of artists and to provide a stable creative environment. Those who proved professional status as an artist with the certificate can use the service. 3,340 artists have used the facilities in 2021.
The occupational health and safety insurance for artists is a social insurance scheme for a freelance artist which allows them to sign up for a premium as an individual. The Korean Artists Welfare Foundation works as a proxy for administrative work in the insurance sign up, supporting 50-90% of the insurance payment. The artist employment insurance is promoted for the purpose of improving the mid- to long-term welfare treatment of cultural and artistic organizations (employer) and artists. Those artists who are under employment insurance can receive unemployment benefits of 120-270 days while seeking a job as well as 90 days of salary before or after giving birth. These social insurance schemes contribute to the establishment of a social safety net for freelance artists and the preparation of a stable foundation for creative activities.
Starting in June 2019, the artist life stabilization fund (loan) was introduced and started supporting ‘living stabilization fund loan’ and ‘jeonse fundloan’ for freelance artists who are financially vulnerable. Since COVID-19, a‘special loan’ was newly established and supported artists in need with the budget of 7.1 Billion Won in 2020 and 2.9 Billion Won in 2021.

However, ASSITEJ was able to identify the regions with interest in accepting the works in the future, and planning to increase the number of regions for the performance in 2023.
The ASSITEJ International Winter Festival celebrated its 18th anniversary in 2022. The ‘Seoul ASSITEJ Winter Festival Awards’ is held after the Winter Festival. It started as a ‘Seoul Children’s Theater Award’, which was the only children’s play award in Korea established in 1992. In 2022, the ASSITEJ Korea announced the winning works through its 30th Awards. The awards ceremony has greatly contributed to the qualitative growth of creative performances for children and youth in Korea. The winning works not only attract attention in Korea but also from the global market, receving invitations to festivals around the world. K-PAP, the only children's and youth art market and platform business in Korea, is held during the Winter Festival. K-PAP has had 46 promoters from 29 countries for two years before the COVID-19 pandemic, selling three performance works to the global market, with 12 in the process (as of 2019).

The Producer Group DOT is a collective group of independent performing arts producers formed in August 2014. Currently, four performing arts producers are leading the planning and operation of diverse projects in the fields of theater, dance, and interdisciplinary arts, such as creation of performing arts, international co-production, international exchange, and international residency research. With the main topic of contemporary art, DOT explores topics such as Asian solidarity, cities, borders, refugees, disabilities, and climate change. It creates and plans art projects through creative collaboration with artists in the fields of theater, dance, and interdisciplinary arts. For the past four years (2019-2022), based on themes around city and art, disability and art, technology society and art, and climate change and art, DOT planned projects such as climate change residency, technology lab, and connected city. Asia Producer Platform (APP) and Artists’ Residency at Arts Farm Tutbat – Climate Change are some of the major projects of DOT.
The Asia Producer Platform (APP) was established in 2013 by individual producers from Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and Australia. The Producer Group DOT is the founding and planning member of APP in Korea. About 100 independent producers from Korea, Japan, Australia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, China, Indonesia, New Zealand, Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia are participating. Each year, APP operates camp and online programs where about 50 Asian performing arts producers participate. As such, DOT introduces contemporary Korean artworks abroad, and continues to promote international tours, international cooperation projects as well as co-productions.
Artists’ Residency at Arts Farm Tutbat – Climate Change is a thematic residency that started in 2020. Diverse artists, planners and researchers participate from the fields such as theater, visual arts, films, videos, literature, and interdisciplinary arts gather to study climate change, one of the most important topics in current times. The 2020 and 2021 residency programs were operated with a big theme of ‘The Change of Perception and Perspective on Climate Change’, and 2022 set the sub-theme of ‘Energy’ under the theme of ‘The Change of Perspective’.
There are 4 types of residency program. First, the 'Common Workshop' is formed through workshops and lectures where all the resident artists participate in. Second, the 'Individual Research' is a research or work activity conducted independently by each participating artist. Third, the 'Online Residency' is where all the participating artists communicate online. Lastly, the 'Arts Farm Tutbat' is where the participating artists share their results of residency activities in various forms such as exhibitions and performances.
In particular, the Arts Farm Tutbat program ran local research exhibitions and environmental filming programs which gained great sympathy from local citizens on climate change. There will be more opportunities where local citizens participate in art projects directly or indirectly through diverse opportunities with local communities who are interested in climate change.
In addition, DOT has carried out production and distribution projects with the themes of disability, art, and refugees. Under the theme of disability and art, DOT held a workshop for development of inclusive arts creation (2019), a research and workshop for audience development (2019), and an audio description workshop of dance performance for the visually impaired (2020-2021). In 2022, DOT proceeded with a workshop for performance arts creation and development.

Formed in 2017, Woman Open Tech Lab (hereafter referred to as Woman Tech Lab) is based in Euljiro, where the urban manufacturing industry has grown spontaneously. It combines not only the physical space of Euljiro but also the keywords of ‘woman’ and ‘technology’ to challenge the gender biased and hierarchical culture that is prevalent within the technology utilizing fields such as makers’ culture and media art. Woman Tech Lab is trying to implement “technology from gender perspective – technological practice of feminism.” Through diverse activities such as workshops, exhibitions, seminars, lectures, and research groups, Woman Tech Lab nurtures women’s literacy in technology, and helps develop women to implement independent thinking and practice over technology from a feminist perspective. Main programs include technology research group, The Resisters, and technology education content development.
From 2017, the technology research group has been running on a long-term basis (at least six months) with about ten woman artists or creators every year. Each group meeting selects a keyword topic, and participating members select a detailed research topic of their own interest that meets their bigger theme for their research and action. Based on the keyword, a forum is held where they discuss how technology combined with art is defined, mapped, filtered, and instrumentalized as a device.
‘The ‘Technology that resists, The Resisters’ is a program participating members can experience several technologies that are useful for art creation such as installation, sculpture, and media arts. It also fosters members to create new arts using their own interpretation of artistic expressions. In 2021, ten young (under the age of 29) woman artists were recruited. The goal was to induce technical independence of woman creators, to increase interest in technology, and to build a network among woman creators.
The Woman Tech Lab also develops technology education content, and provides technology workshops and education for those with difficulty in accessing technology and for those with intention of enhancing technological literacy. The Woman Tech Lab developed an introductory kit, specifically designed for women, to offer comprehensive and basic skills of technology (E-Textile, physical computing, coding, DIY crafting, technical hacking, etc.) in creative ways.

The first technology research group conducted a research on the theme of ‘basic electronic technology’ in 2017, and the second research group conducted a study on the ‘E-Textile’ in 2018. In October 2019, the third research group recruited new members with the theme of 'something for women made by women using technology' and held an online exhibition in April 2020. The fourth research group, which started in June 2020, kept with the theme of Circuit Bending, and launched a website called 'Kick-it Circuit’ to announce the research results in January 2021. The fifth research group held meetings to design and manufacture their own circuits (PCBs) under the name 'Circuit Breakers' in 2021. In June 2022, the sixth research group pursuing research in the theme of ‘Reading Technology Critically’.
The Resisters was selected as Seoul Foundation of Arts and Culture LAB [Out: of School/Genre] project. Targeting young woman creators, The Resisters ran nine education programs and an online exhibition. As companions living in the same era and colleagues with the same problematic mindset, young woman creators met and experienced technologies together such as electricity, welding, hacking, and 3D modeling during the project. It was a place to set independent thinking, explore new culture in technology, and break down the hierarchy. The works of 10 artists who participated in the project were presented at an online exhibition .
The Woman Tech Lab also developed an E-textile introductory kit and MOM (body) kit as a technology education content. is a DIY kit to experience e-textile that combines electronic technology with textiles. It consists of BUL (LED) and BAB (battery socket), specifically designed for E-textile, a conductive thread that connects electricity, a needle, and a button. Participants can complete a circuit that turns on the LED by sewing. Anyone can purchase the kit and produce a circuit with the enclosed manual without even attending the workshop. The MOM (body) kit is a microcontroller board that can be connected to other electronic components such as sensors and speakers. For easy understanding, it uses a concept of a microcontroller that is represented by Arduino, in a human-shaped MOM (body) board along with materials such as conductive tape and conductive thread. With MOM (body) board, participants can compose a simple circuit, and can enjoy electronics and programming in a fun and interesting way through the making process. The MOM (body) kit includes components such as BUL (LED), BAB (battery socket), and TOOL (tools, open circuit) that can be connected to the MOM (body) board.
In addition, the Woman Tech Lab developed a ‘Euljiro style multitab making workshop’, and ‘Physical interface design workshop that connects your body and senses’.

With the 2015 Paris Agreement, the Korean government recognizes and responds to the national responsibility for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Korean government is discussing measures in all areas of economy, society, and culture by organizing the 2050 Carbon Neutrality and Green Growth Commission under the direct control of the President and enacting the ｢Framework Act On Carbon Neutrality And Green Growth For Coping With Climate Crisis｣ (effective from 2022). From around 2021, the cultural field has recognized and responded to climate crisis.
Starting with public institutions under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Korean government is promoting research, forums, and artistic activities to respond to the climate crisis as a form of cultural expression. Korea Culture & Tourism Institute, a national policy research institute, conducted a basic research to establish cultural and tourism policies to cope with the climate crisis in 2021 such as ｢A study to Introduce Environment Friendly Perspective in Cultural Arts｣ and ｢The Tourism Policy Direction to Respond 2050 Carbon Neutrality｣. Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea held the 9th under the theme of ‘How to improve our environment - Things we needed for a sustainable global environment’ in 2021. Furthermore, by the National Theater Company of Korea not only reminded the audience of the importance of carbon neutrality, but also measured the carbon footprint generated in the entire process of production, publicity, and showing of the performance. It was an attempt to establish standards for carbon footprint reduction for the future performing arts. Korea Craft & Design Foundation held an exhibition in Culture Station Seoul 284, which reflected the essence of human beings through the climate crisis. Asia Culture Center held , reflecting the themes of climate change and environmental crisis. Museum of Contemporary Art, Busan also presented special exhibitions on environmental issues such as and .
In July 2021, The Ministers of Culture of the G20 group had a meeting in Italy and agreed on a declaration that firmly positions culture as a major engine for sustainable socio-economic recovery in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It particularly mentioned culture having a very important role in responding to the climate crisis issue. In this context, Korea’s cultural activities in response to the climate crisis in the public areas led by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism partly contribute to implementation of the global agenda.

There is diverse research, forums, art activities happening in response to the climate crisis using culture as a median. Performances and exhibitions with the themes of climate crisis and environment issues stand out among those.
In the field of performing arts, by the National Theater Company of Korea is a representative example. The creators shared the carbon emissions generated during the production process and tried to reduce them in the areas of stage setting, costume, lighting, sound and video, and makeup. In the stage setting, the creators tried to cut back the production of new sets and minimized post-performance waste by using existing props owned by the theater company. Instead of making new costumes, they used existing clothes and used vegetable detergent for washing. In the lighting installation, they used LED lighting instead of incandescent lamps for electricity efficiency, and chose a sound delivery method that uses less power. Makeup artists used vegan cosmetics on actors, and produced promotional posters and program books using eco-friendly paper and soybean oil ink.
In the field of visual art, Museum of Contemporary Art, Busan is a good example. In its 2021 exhibition of , the creators tried to reduce waste and carbon emissions generated during transportation and installation of the artworks. To do this, they transported six artworks from New York via sea, not by air transport, resulting in reduction of carbon emissions by 1/40. In , which was about a marine pollution in the era of climate change, the creators made and sold eco bags out of the waste materials from the exhibition. They also produced and distributed an upcycling experience kit, ‘Dreaming Sea in my bag’.

Challenges and Achievements
Décrivez les principaux résultats atteints dans la mise en œuvre de la Convention (au moins une réalisation majeure dans un des quatre objectifs):
The Republic of Korea protects and promotes diversity in cultural expression in its policies, measures, and programs across the nation. As such, the 2005 Convention has become an effective tool for spreading the value of cultural diversity between governments, and between public and private sectors. Spreading cultural diversity and increasing policies are important achievements not only at international level, but also at national and regional levels. The Republic of Korea has developed and maintained diverse cultural policies and programs that reflect the basic principles of the 2005 Convention, and is continuing its efforts to contribute to the implementation of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Although the QPR of Korea faced challenges and difficulties due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Republic of Korea implemented a number of measures to continuously develop an environment in which diverse cultures get together and coexist. Key achievements are as follows.
(Governance System) In order to promote diversity in cultural expression throughout the entire cycle of creation, production, distribution, and enjoyment of culture, the Republic of Korea expanded the range of collection and analysis of data on cultural diversity such as cultural diversity status surveys, public perception surveys, and public institution surveys. Furthermore, the Republic of Korea formalized the governance system by establishing basic planning for cultural diversity and designating an exclusive agency.
(Mobility of artists and cultural professionals) During COVID-19 pandemic, the Republic of Korea developed policies and programs to support art in a non-contact environment to secure artists’ rights and mobility. It also promotes innovation in cultural products and services to solve problems in a digital environment. Under the Constitution, the Republic of Korea guarantees the rights of artists, and has been actively implementing policies for artists such as life stabilization fund load and employment insurance due to COVID-19.
(Sustainable Development Framework) The Republic of Korea supported in developing a framework that promotes cultural diversity policies within local communities, and formed a consistent relationship with civil society organizations. Currently, 17 local governments and two regional education offices have enacted and implemented cultural diversity ordinances. Additionally, 12 regions have conducted factual surveys to discovered issues on cultural diversity within the regions.
(Human Right and Basic Freedom) The Republic of Korea developed an indicator and performed data analysis to foster gender quality in art environment. In 2022, it establised the ‘Basic Plan to Support Cultural and Artistic Activities for the Artists With Disabilities (2022~2026)’ to guarantee active supports for artists with disabilities’ creative activities. Such supports include creative support, professional education and manpower training, international exchange, and development of standard performance theater.
Décrivez les principaux défis rencontrés dans la mise en œuvre de la Convention et les principales solutions trouvées ou envisagées pour les surmonter:
The implementation of the 2005 Convention is the outcome of cooperation with its member countries, and other domestic institutions, local governments, and civil society organizations. Many of its policies (such as awareness improvement and capacity building) need great effort and are process-oriented. Therefore, it is difficult to produce tangible results in short term. Despite efforts with laws, institutions, and governance systemization, cooperation and performance monitoring with policies are still challenging. Furthermore, many policies and measures include research, survey, planning, and data management which are not financially funded.
Active discourses and spread of value in private economy (industrial) are important for cultural products and services. Unfortunately, there is a lack of cooperation with private economies due to profit-driven nature of their activities. Therefore, continuous attention and efforts are needed to ensure that cultural diversity policies and measures not only occur within the government, but also in local community and private economy.
Décrivez les étapes prévues pour les quatre prochaines années afin de poursuivre la mise en œuvre de la Convention et les domaines prioritaires de l’action politiques identifies sur la base des conclusions de ce rapport périodique:
From 2021 to 2024, the Republic of Korea will carry out a policy program to implement the '1st Basic Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity' led by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Other ministries include the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Science and ICT, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Administration and Security, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family. The main strategies of this plan are 1) protection and expansion of cultural diversity, 2) ensuring cultural participation and accessibility of minorities, 3) spreading the value of cultural diversity and forming a foundation for coexistence. The aim is to create a cultural ecosystem of diversity and inclusion in the process of production, distribution, and enjoyment of culture. In particular, the Republic of Korea plans to continuously review new challenges and measures through the expansion of cultural diversity awareness projects, development of cultural diversity monitoring and evaluation initiatives, and consultation with government authorities and civil society organizations.
During the period of writing the QPR of Korea in 2022, the Yoon Seok-yeol government was newly inaugurated. The new government’s national policy principles align with that of the 2005 Convention, which are national interest, practicality, fairness, and common knowledge. Thus, future policies will implement programs that emphasize cultural diversity and inclusion.
