제주포럼이 시작된 지 올해로 스무 해가 됩니다.
분단 이후 최초로 남북정상회담이 열렸던 이듬해에,
한반도의 평화를 염원하는 우리 모두의 마음을 담아
제주포럼이 시작되었습니다.

“Now, we are returning to multilateralism. We are involving the international community and revisiting international agreements. This is how we will win the trust for democracy and support from the private sector.”

“One of the ways in which one should take advantage of one’s youth and the opportunity of being from a wealthier country is to try to do good for the world. This is your opportunity. You can change the world.”

“Humanity needs to work it out together to reach a new level of international cooperation and contribute to a more reliable system of international security.”

“We need politics that respect the rights of all, that encourage full participation from the people, that is sufficiently decentralized to address the diverse needs of people in society. Only inclusive politics can deliver inclusive prosperity.”

“The global challenges we face are increasingly pressing. Climate change, combating the pandemic and the next pandemic, improving public health, global economic recovery, global financial stability, stability in debt markets and nuclear arms control are examples of where cooperation will be necessary for the world’s interests."

“We have to present our terms to develop our future, one of our inclusive prosperity, inclusive society, inclusive politics and active citizenship. We need to show that addition and multiplication are much better than subtraction and division.”

"Cooperation is fundamental to address all of challenges of our time. Working for peace, extending universal discourse, delivering the sustainable development goals, and preventing disasters and crisis of all kinds.”

"Covid19 shows everyone the importance of a common answer, a common act, and a common strategy of prevention. We understand that we cannot accept a life of social distance because we need mutual relation."

“What we need today is an ideology of altruism which means to understand the fact that being good to others is not only good for the others but also good for ourselves.”
