The U.S. Mission to South Korea is spearheading a program aimed at strengthening the strategic partnership between the United States and Korea by addressing shared challenges in energy security.
This initiative focuses on enhancing bilateral cooperation to ensure that both countries maintain stable, resilient, and diversified energy supplies. Key issues such as infrastructure development, regulatory alignment, and supply chain vulnerabilities will be central to these efforts.
Through a combination of workshops, exchange programs, and strategic dialogues, energy policymakers, regulatory officials, and business leaders from both nations will collaborate to develop practical solutions to pressing energy security concerns. The program highlights the critical need to reduce dependence on foreign adversaries, protect essential energy infrastructure, and promote transparent, efficient energy markets.
This collaborative approach not only advances energy security but also supports broader goals of economic growth, national security, and long-term stability for both the United States and Korea. By fostering mutual understanding and policy alignment, the program builds a foundation for sustained cooperation on energy issues of shared importance.
Participants from Korea will take part in a two-week exchange program in the United States, engaging directly with U.S. counterparts. This immersive experience includes visits to critical energy infrastructure sites, meetings with U.S. energy experts, and policy dialogues aimed at exchanging best practices and exploring joint solutions.
Complementing the exchange, a series of workshops will be held in Korea to bring together experts from both countries for in-depth discussions on regulatory and infrastructure challenges, as well as supply chain resilience. These workshops will provide a platform to develop actionable recommendations and deepen bilateral collaboration.
With a funding amount of $100,000 and a performance period of 12 months, the program invites eligible applicants such as not-for-profit organizations, educational institutions, think tanks, civil society groups, and governmental bodies. This initiative offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to the strengthening of U.S.-Korea energy cooperation while addressing critical challenges that impact both nations.
