Dear Respected Scholars,

We proudly announce that the Institute of Indian Studies, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS), have co-organized an international conference on “Korea-India-Russia: Exploring A New Age of Cooperation through Mutual Understanding”, along with the Institute of Russian Studies, HUFS, the Institute of Eastern and Western Societies, St. Petersburg State University, and the School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University.

In recent years the relationship among South Korea, India, and Russia faces a new stage of cooperation. The South Korean government has been strengthening multiphasic cooperation with India by advocating the “New Southern Policy.” In addition, the connection between the Russian Far East and South Korea by railway has become more plausible as the relationship between South and North Koreas has improved to the best level since early this year. Meanwhile Russia and India, as BRICS members, are making a new leap forward from their traditional strategic partnership. This conference will provide an open field of discussion and debate on rapidly changing international milieu.

Detailed program is in attached file. The venue and time of conference as follows.
 

Date: December 13 & 14, 2018. 10:00~18:00
Venue: International Conference Hall, Minerva Complex, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies  

I look forward to seeing many concerned scholars at the conference!

Sincerely,
Director, Institute of Indian Studies
