SUMMER INTERNSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT

Application Deadline: March 15, 2009

Through grassroots organizing, Nodutdol for Korean Community Development
seeks to bridge divisions created by war, nation, gender, sexual 
orientation,
language, class, and generation among Koreans and to empower our community 
to
address the injustices we and other people of color face here and abroad.
Nodutdol works in collaboration with other progressive organizations 
locally,
nationally and internationally as part of a larger movement for peace and
social change. To learn more about Nodutdol, go to www.nodutdol.org.

In 2009, Nodutdol, as part of a national coalition, will launch a national
campaign for the ratification of a Peace Treaty on the Korean peninsula.
Summer interns will assist in the campaign in many different ways, and
responsibilities may include:

- Studying the origin of Korea's national division and the history of the
people's movement for peace and national unification;
- Surveying Korean American youth and students to assess general attitudes
on the prospect for peace and unification on the Korean peninsula;
- Developing workshops and educational materials aimed at reaching and
mobilizing a broad base of Korean American youth and students in the 
campaign;
- Developing outreach materials and utilizing mass media to promote a
national Peace Treaty tour;
- Making contacts with student organizations on local campuses to arrange
workshops and other educational events;
-  Bringing together student leaders from various campuses and organizations
to form a host committee for the national Peace Treaty tour; and
-  Facilitating workshops and giving presentations at schools, churches, and
