In 2012, Our activities began in North Korea at the request of the Korean Federation for the Protection of the Disabled (KFPD). Our goal is to strengthen the organisational capacity of partners, ensure strong and sustainable services for people with disabilities and support children to grow with better standards of living.

OUR MISSION

At DULA International, our work is motivated by our faith. We are committed to following the teaching and example of Jesus Christ in His kindness and understanding with those who are poor, vulnerable or forgotten. Through our work, we aim to relieve and support the vulnerable from developing countries.

OUR WORK
We are currently supporting surgical, medical training,  eye care projects, nutrition, international exchange programme, and schools for disabled children in North Korea through the KFPD. Already, these children have benefitted in their learning and wellbeing through our provision of: Books, Braille printers, Braille laptops Other educational supplies nutrition programmes and rehab for children so on.
We also support the sports teams for the disabled in North Korea. There is still a long way to go, with much work to be done and we hope to achieve in the future.

It is the only non-governmental organisation recognised by the North Korean government to represent all the institutions related to the disabled people.
