North Korean Defector Scholarship (Retired Projects)

This program aims to support English education for North Korean defectors working hard to settle in Korea after leaving their homes in North Korea. We support them to complete the English course in the British Council, and students who are selected for the English for the Future Program (EFF) get the opportunity to take a six-month English course at the British Council and a two-month internship at the British Embassy. The students can continue to study at a university in the UK with the Chevening Scholarship or improve their English proficiency through language study abroad programs.
