For Global Saemaul Undong to be successful, Korea Saemaul Undong Center has selected model villages in developing countries to pursue various Saemaul projects.
Currently, 42 Saemaul Model Villages in ten nations are actively conducting Saemaul projects with Korea’s support and the voluntary participation of villagers. It is encouraging that Saemaul Undong is spreading spontaneously from model villages to neighboring areas in some nations.
