The EU Society at Korea University, GSIS visited the Embassy of Ireland in Seoul on ​November 27, 2025 for a special discussion with Ambassador Michelle Winthrop, with support from the KU Jean Monnet EU Centre of Excellence. The session focused on Ireland’s approach to advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the EU framework, highlighting national priorities, implementation strategies, and the challenges of translating policy into practice.

Through an open and informal discussion, students exchanged views with the Ambassador on topics such as community engagement, innovation, intergovernmental coordination, and Ireland’s policy of military neutrality. The visit offered valuable insights into Ireland’s role in international cooperation and provided students with a meaningful opportunity to engage directly with diplomatic perspectives on sustainable development.
