  • HanVoice is a national organization in Canada focused on improved human rights in North Korea and Canada's engagement in the Korean Peninsula. In 2021, HanVoice reached an agreement with the Government of Canada to allow private Canadian citizens to sponsor North Korean refugees in transit countries. The Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program pilot seeks to resettle five North Korean refugee families in a two-year period. Among the candidates in transit countries, the program targets North Korean women and their children, who currently make up 80% of refugees and are at significant risk of violence against women. "North Koreans who have managed to flee their country have very few options of settling safely without risk of immigration detention or repatriation," Executive Director, Sean Chung said. "Canada is now a safe pathway. We hope this can be the spark that opens new doors around the world for North Korean refugees." (en)
  • 한보이스(HanVoice)는 2007년 탈북자 문제를 해결을 촉구하기 위해서 결성된 인권단체이다. 소수의 캐나다 한인 2세들로부터 시작하여 현재 수백명의 회원을 확보하고 있는 단체로 성장하였다. 한보이스는 탈북자들이 처해있는 상황의 해결을 시급한 문제로 생각하고 있다. 스스로를 돌볼 수 없는 상황에 처해 있는 사람은 사회가 돌봐야 한다는 것은 캐나다의 믿음이며, 한보이스는 그러한 믿음을 가진 캐나다인들의 목소리를 증대시키고, 이를 통하여 탈북자들의 삶에 큰 변화를 줄 수 있다고 믿고 있다. 한보이스(HanVocie)의 이름에서 한(Han)은 중의적으로 하나라는 뜻과 정서로서의 한을 함축하고 있다. 따라서 한보이스는 탈북자들이 처한 어려움을 나타내는 하나의 소리라는 의미를 가지고 있다. 한보이스의 표어는 "탈북자들을 대신하여 캐나다인을 움직이자"이다.
