Dialogue over Dinner series.
3 dinners over the course of 3 months offers you the opportunity to meet other adult Korean adoptees, sit down over Korean food and talk about the varying experiences we share that relate to being an adopted Korean. This series of dinners is exclusively for adult Korean adoptees. You do not have to attend all 3 of the dinners to participate. You can pick and choose which ones you want to attend. It might be all three, it might be just one - it's your choice! Focus of dialogues will be:
---> Growing Up Stories
---> Birth Search Stories
---> Experiences in Korea
---> VOLUNTEER
---> CONNECT GLOBALLY
- Adopted Koreans from around the globe (including the USA, Canada, Denmark, and Sweden) met in Las Vegas, Nevada from January 13-15, 2008 for the IKAA (International Korean Adoptee Associations) Mini-Gathering. Learn more about IKAA.
