The 13th 21st Century Forum on Humanistic Values is a three-day humanities and cultural event held at the Andong International Convention Center and throughout Andong City under the theme "A Shaking World, Things That Do Not Change." The event kicks off with a keynote lecture at the opening ceremony and the Humanistic Values Grand Prize ceremony, and concludes with the proclamation of the Andong Declaration at the closing ceremony. The program is designed to allow visitors to directly experience humanistic values by seeing, walking, and interacting through thematic, public, and participatory sessions featuring domestic and international scholars and citizens, as well as exhibitions, hands-on programs, tours, and networking events. Having expanded Korea's traditional culture into universal values for the past decade, this event will share contemporary topics such as war and peace, memory and records, and AI and technology, and will be held as a simultaneous online and offline event with approximately 5,000 participants.
