Annual Report
2017-2018 Annual Report
What a dramatic year it’s been. One year ago,
President Donald Trump threatened to unleash
“fire and fury” on North Korea. Now, the prospect
of permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula
looms on the horizon, and Women Cross DMZ is
poised to play a key role in the process.
How did we get here?
The reversal began with the Winter Olympics,
when the two Koreas marched together carrying
the One Korea flag. South Korean President Moon
Jae-In and North Korean Chairman Kim Jong-Un
held three inter-Korean summits and signed two
declarations, agreeing to family reunions, joint
athletic teams, civil society exchanges, and the
reopening of joint economic ventures. South
Korea opened a liaison office in Kaesong to
facilitate year-round communications between
Seoul and Pyongyang.
