KAN-WIN'S ADVOCACY
FOR JUSTICE
​FOR "COMFORT WOMEN"
​SURVIVORS

“Comfort women” was a euphemism for the hundreds of thousands of women across Asia who were forced into Japanese military sexual slavery in the years leading up to and during World War II. The survivors’ ongoing fight for justice is a fight against sexual violence everywhere.

"The Statue of Peace must remain—against colonial oppression and the continuing attempts to silence us!"
The Statue of Peace of Korea Verband has stood in Berlin's Moabit district since September 2020. Following a visit with Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa, the mayor of Berlin is threatening to remove the memorial in September. 
Help us save Ari and stand against silencing of military sexual violence survivors! Sign the petition and share with your networks!

Will you #Comesitwithher?

In this short film, our survivor advocate, Min A Kim, tells her story of sitting as the human replica of the Statue of Peace, aka Sonyeosang, and joining the “comfort women” justice movement. We hope it inspires you to join us and #ComeSitWithHer.
