North Korean Strategy Center (NKSC) is a defector-led NGO that was established in Seoul, South Korea in 2007 to raise awareness on North Korea's human rights conditions, and advocate of freedom and unification in Korea. Understanding the power of media and information to open minds and bring change, NKSC seeks to bring free press and media into North Korea by working with North and South Koreans, as well as the international community, raising awareness, with emphasis on the need for freedom of information and expression in North Korea.[1] Since its inception, NKSC has worked with over 150 North Korean defectors, and sent over 40,000 DVDs, 400 radio sets, and 4,000 USBs into North Korea.[2]
