The Korea Educational Development Institute (KEDI) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Korean Immigration Policy Association to strengthen research and policies for students with migrant backgrounds and international students. The agreement, signed on January 28, aims to address the changing educational landscape and provide better support for diverse student populations.
Under the partnership, both organizations will collaborate on data-driven policy research focusing on learning, adaptation, career development, settlement, and reducing educational disparities for migrant and international students. They will also co-develop training programs, educational materials, and content that link education with career and employment opportunities.
Joint initiatives will include seminars, forums, and workshops to discuss education, immigration policy, employment, and social integration. Research findings and best practices will be shared widely to inform policies and improve on-site support for students navigating academic and professional pathways in Korea.
