RPI’s Korea Programme
The major focus of RPI’s work at present is seeking to build a shared vision and convergent development process between North and South Korea. RPI’s involvement in the Korean Peninsula largely comprises three parts.
Visits
Maintaining high-level contacts with the diplomats, senior officials, thinktank and academics through regular visits to Geneva, Seoul, Washington DC and London.
Seminars
Mobilising international expertise and knowledge on the issue of inter-Korean relations and reunification by running seminars in Geneva and Cambridge, or online.
Research
We are publishing books and research reports on how best to build economic cooperation and trust between North Korea and South Korea.
Mutual Convergent Development 第一阶段:
Korean Peninsula Agriculture Community (KPAC)
Bilateral Free Trade Agreement — Features
We have focused on research across many sectors of public life in both DPRK and ROK, including their relationships with other countries. This research has led us to conclusions which underpin our current proposals. To appreciate how a KPAC may contribute to building relationships and trust between DPRK and ROK, please read the report available below this section.
Possible Payment System for Bilateral Trade Agreement:
Intra-Korean Won
朝鲜半岛立场报告
RPI’s proposed Bilateral Free Trade Agreement (BFTA) developed from an earlier position paper entitled ‘Building Relationships and Trust Across the Korean Peninsula; A Mutually-agreed Economic and Social Convergence Strategy’. Between 2019 and 2021 these ideas, now developed further as the ‘Mutually Agreed Convergent Development Strategy’, are expressed in the BFTA. To understand the wider background and purpose of the BFTA, we hope you may find time to read the RPI position paper below.
