Our Story
Our Story
SJWC was established to meet the growing demand for structured, professional exchange between Canada, Korea, and the global community. While formally incorporated in Canada in 2025, the Centre is rooted in more than a decade of academic collaboration, policy dialogue, and faculty exchange programs carried out by its founding members and institutional partners.
Our origins lie in initiatives that began well before the Centre’s incorporation—seminars, delegation visits, and research partnerships that highlighted the need for a permanent platform. Drawing on these experiences, SJWC was founded to serve as a sustainable hub for cross-border education, governance training, and public sector cooperation.
Key Milestones:
Pre-2025 – Founding members engaged in academic partnerships, delegation exchanges, and international conferences across Canada and Korea
2025 – Formal incorporation in Ontario as a registered non-profit, building on years of preparatory work
2025 – Launch of the first pilot program in academic exchange and leadership development
2026 and beyond – Expansion of MOUs, policy briefs, and institutional cooperation projects with global partners
Today, SJWC stands as a trusted bridge between Canada and partner countries, committed to advancing knowledge sharing, professional development, and public service excellence.
