This project aims to expand the value of diversity and coexistence in Incheon, one of Korea’s most diverse cities, through the i-RISE initiative.

Incheon National University will launch the 2026 Global Hope Completion Project" for the diversity and coexistence of Incheon," the largest migrant-dense city in Korea with 80,000 overseas Koreans, 85,000 multicultural household members, and 122,000 foreigners."    

Incheon National University's position is that it will continue to operate and support 16 programs per year to overseas Koreans, multicultural families, and Koreans based on "diversity, coexistence, enlargement, and persistence," away from the past temporary programs that invited multicultural families to conduct field trips, cultural performances, or provide daily necessities.

This program is included in the i-RISE framework and will be conducted with the involvement of related organizations, led by Incheon National University.
