>> ABOUT ACOPIA
International Work Camp in Gochang is brought by Asia Hope Camp Group(ACOPIA).
Since 2011 we have focused on our efforts to a new project for international youth called Asia Hope Camp. Our slogan of this project is “Beyond natural disasters, to the world, to the future,” and in cooperating with several other Japanese and Korean organizations, our organization has the following goals for the Asia Hope Camp.
-
World volunteer map; this project is created by Korean teenagers, showing volunteer opportunities around the world. Many teenagers in Korea have already expressed interests of this project.
-
Free exchange of ideas; we would like to increase our interactions with other international volunteer organizations in the world to facilitate information and culture exchange.
-
Breaking the barrier of misunderstanding by volunteering; this is not only about providing more opportunities for young Japanese and Koreans to interact and find common ground by working together, but also about helping poverty and damaged regions in Asia.
Furthermore, a peace in Asia cannot be accomplished by the will of Asian nations alone. We do not restrict any participants to those of Asian nationalities. All youth who wish to take a part will be welcomed, regardless of the country they are from.
We hope to take new steps in our mutual journey this year, and the future as well.
