It has been 200 years since the passing of Kim Man-deok, and by re-examining her contributing and sharing spirit, this symposium aims to establish a leadership with the spirit of “Noblesse Oblige”, and to cultivate the sense of service to society. To decrease social polarization and encourage integration, global poverty reduction, and increased charity activity of the business sector in the 21st Century, the role of women and their participation in society must be emphasized. In this session, we will discuss and discover ways to increase women’s participation in society and reduce global poverty.
