Annual Report 2014 understanding of human rights by employing a variety of media including the human rights film “The Golden Carriage in the Sky”, A Handbook on the Prevention of Sexual Harassment During Medical Treatment, the animated film "A Step Forward to Equality" for the prevention of sexual harassment and assault against female soldiers, the booklet “Gunin (군人, or military human rights)”, the human rights book If You Feel Uncomfortable, Ask, promotional videos of important decisions made by the NHRCK, and human rights promotional campaigns via radio programs. It was regretful that the enactment of the Human Rights Education Support Act, developed to lay a foundation for the institutionalization of human rights education, was cancelled due to protest from a few groups. However, the Commission will continue to promote similar legislation in the future. Moreover, it is very important to attain ample resources in education facilities and operational manpower in order to fully meet the increasing needs for a smaller group-based human rights education course to enhance the efficacy of human rights education. In this regard, fortunately, human rights education centers, scheduled to be established in every region where the regional human rights offices are located, will become significant forums to further facilitate human rights education for local residents. In the international community, the NHRCK has tried to fulfil its mandate as a leading NHRI with various activities by holding international symposiums on human rights in North Korea, operating international training courses as a part of the ODA projects, participating in a number of international meetings, and signing relevant MOUs. However, the ICC-SCA deferred the reaccreditation of the NHRCK twice (in March and November), expressing concerns over the lack of consistent criteria and transparency in regards to the selection and appointment of commissioners.
