Culture
Communication Forum 2013 www.coreaimage.org CCF 2013
Statement of Purpose (September
1 to 3, 2013) o As a prelude to the G20 Seoul Summit which was held
in 2010, CICI hosted "C20 "(Culture 20) in 2010. Spurred by the
success of C20, which later became CCF, CICI hosted the culture summit
meeting as an annual event from 2011. o
CICI is organizing the 4th CCF 2013 to give cultural figures from C20 countries
an opportunity to experience various aspects of Korean culture. CCF culminates
in a lively discussion which aims to spur the exchange of opinions about
culture, communication and harmony of different cultures. o
CCF 2013 will be held in Seoul, Korea for three days from September 1 to 3 in
2013. During this period, all delegates will be able to experience the allure
of Korean culture through their five senses by visiting historic sites, tasting
authentic Korean food and watching Korean performances. o CICI
hopes that CCF delegates will be inspired by their cultural experiences in
Korea and play a vital role in introducing Korea in their home countries
through articles, media interviews and other channels. CCF also aims to communicate
interactively through cultural exchanges between Korea and the delegates'
countries as well. o As this year marks CICI’s 10th anniversary, CICI
would like to solidify the identity of Korean culture in the world. To this
end, CICI will provide a forum at which there will be a free exchange of
opinions regarding ways to improve Korea’s image in the future, following the Hallyu syndrome in 2012. In addition,
the winners of the second Communication Contest hosted by
CICI last April will participate to share the views of the young generation. o CCF would like to be a stepping
stone between Korea and the rest of the world by inviting cultural leaders from
C20 to experience Korean culture and exchange opinions about culture and
communication. Moreover, we hope Korea will become a leading country in the
field of culture and communication through CCF. CCF will showcase Korea’s
cultural competitiveness to the world and will play a major role in improving the
image of Korea. Date: September 1 to 3, 2013 Venue: Historical and cultural sites to experience
