Our Association

The International Multicultural Association (IMA) affirms that every human being is entitled to freedom, equality, and dignity—and above all, the right to be loved. Our mission is to support individuals facing hardship and to foster unity around the world through a global “Bond of Love.” To achieve this, we are establishing branches in countries across the globe to expand this movement and uphold the principles of human rights and freedom. We are committed to identifying and addressing areas where compassion is needed, and to taking tangible steps to meet those needs.

As part of our long-term vision, we aim to advocate for the creation of an international “Multicultural Committee” under the United Nations (UN). This body will foster understanding and cooperation among nations, ethnicities, and cultures. We also support national efforts to help multicultural communities integrate, adapt, and thrive in their host countries. This includes ensuring equal access to opportunities, services, and social inclusion—empowering individuals to become respected citizens who can one day return home as ambassadors of peace, progress, and cultural pride.

Our association brings together like-minded individuals who are dedicated to protecting the rights and interests of multicultural populations—especially in Korea. We provide practical support, essential services, and information to ensure these communities enjoy the same rights and responsibilities as native citizens.
