    Bilingual Language Program Support

    With the increase of married migrant women, the number of multicultural families is increasing every year. However, even though it is the language of their mother's country, children's education is mainly in Korean, and children who can speak the language of the mother's country are rare.
    To establish the identity of multicultural families, education that respects the language and cultural values of parents from abroad is necessary. If children from multicultural families grow up understanding the language of their mother's country and the culture and history, they will become global talents. For this, the ADF supports the operation of various bilingual classes.
    Furthermore, if students who have studied through the bilingual language program want to go to universities in their mother's country, they can apply for "Gift for Motherland," a scholarship program to study in their mother's country, which supports tuition and living expenses.
