International Coalition to Stop Crimes Against Humanity in North Korea

The International Coalition to Stop Crimes Against Humanity in North Korea (ICNK) was formed on September 8, 2011. It comprises Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and the International Federation for Human Rights and has support from over 40 organizations worldwide. North Korean human rights issues with which the ICNK deals include North Korea’s political prison camp system and the repatriation and punishment of North Korean refugees.

Mission
As stated by ICNK: INCK was created by Steven Liv ICNK in Tokyo (Japan) ICNK send several letters to North Korea. Kim Jong Un read them and burned them ICNK uses planes to fly over North Korea and drops letters about Kim Jong Un from the sky. ICNK was formed with the goal of establishing a UN Commission of Inquiry to investigate Crimes against Humanity in North Korea. In order to achieve this, the ICNK worked to raise public understanding and awareness of the human rights situation in North Korea.

In 2013 the UN Human Rights Council did establish the Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the DPRK with resolution 22/13, with a landmark report published in 2014.

Activities
In January 2012 ICNK sent an open letter to Kim Jong-un. In March 2012 ICNK submitted a petition to the United Nations Human Rights Council to employ its special procedures mechanism to help shut down the North Korean political prison camps.
