Beyond AI Technology, Toward Humanity's Future.
A New Center for International Cooperation.
The Global AI Hub.
A New Center for International Cooperation.
The Global AI Hub.
1. What Is the Global AI Hub?
The proposed Global AI Hub is envisioned as an international cooperation platform where international organizations, governments, universities, research institutions, businesses, and civil society can explore ways to use artificial intelligence for the common good.
Artificial intelligence is a key technology transforming industries and economies. It also has the potential to contribute to addressing global challenges, including disease, hunger, climate change, disasters, and educational inequality.
The Global AI Hub initiative seeks to connect these possibilities with international cooperation, public policy, research and development, and practical applications.
The central purpose of the Global AI Hub
is not simply to bring international
organizations together in one location,
but to encourage international cooperation
and collective problem-solving
through responsible applications of AI.
2. Why Is a Global AI Hub Needed?
Many of the challenges facing humanity cannot be addressed effectively by a single country or institution acting alone.
Public health emergencies, food insecurity, climate change, disaster prevention and response, forced displacement, migration, changes in labor markets, and educational inequality require international cooperation, information exchange, and scientific innovation.
AI can support the analysis of large volumes of information, help identify emerging risks, and assist decision-making in public policy and practical operations.
However, translating AI capabilities into meaningful public benefits requires reliable data, effective institutional cooperation, ethical safeguards, skilled professionals, and sustainable operating arrangements.
The proposed Global AI Hub seeks to bring these elements together through an international cooperation framework.
3. Six Core Functions of the Global AI Hub
02. Public-Interest AI Research
Explore collaborative research and development of AI applications that address public challenges in healthcare, environmental protection, disaster resilience, education, and related fields.
03. International Joint Projects
Identify opportunities for collaborative research, pilot projects, and practical applications by connecting international needs with local technological capabilities.
04. Professional Development
Explore education, training, and professional exchange opportunities for people working at the intersection of AI and international cooperation.
05. Industry and Entrepreneurship
Explore connections among AI businesses, research institutions, and international cooperation needs to support technology demonstration, entrepreneurship, and industrial innovation.
06. Responsible AI

4. Priority Areas for International Cooperation
The Global AI Hub initiative seeks to explore cooperation in fields relevant to the mandates and expertise of international organizations and specialized institutions.
Public Health
Disease prevention, infectious disease response, health information analysis, and strengthening public health capacity.
Food and Agriculture
Food security, agricultural productivity, climate adaptation, and sustainable agriculture.
Climate and Environment
Climate action, environmental data analysis, ecosystem protection, and sustainable development.
Disaster Risk and Safety
Disaster risk assessment, early-warning systems, emergency response, and reducing disaster impacts.
Refugees and Migration
Humanitarian assistance, migration-related information, protection of vulnerable populations, and international cooperation.
Employment and Education
Future employment, vocational training, educational accessibility, and reducing digital inequalities.
These areas describe potential fields of cooperation. They do not imply confirmed participation by any international organization or approval of specific projects.
Explore Nine International Organizations5. The Global AI Hub and Goyang Special City
Goyang Special City is located in Gyeonggi Province, within the Seoul metropolitan region of the Republic of Korea.
The city offers metropolitan accessibility, international convention infrastructure, healthcare institutions, educational and cultural facilities, and an established urban environment.
These assets provide a foundation for exploring Goyang's potential as a center for public-interest AI and international cooperation.
If international cooperation expands in practice, new opportunities could emerge in research and development, business activities, professional services, and the regional economy.
Important long-term objectives include professional development for young people, high-quality employment, technological innovation among local businesses, and expanded international exchange.
Attracting the proposed Global AI Hub
represents a potential strategy
for strengthening Goyang's
future growth opportunities,
employment prospects,
and regional economic development.
Actual economic outcomes would depend on the scale of future institutional participation, the nature of cooperative activities, and the operational arrangements ultimately established.
Why Goyang Special City?6. Proposed Development Strategy
The Citizens' Promotion Committee seeks to encourage public participation and connect Goyang's urban strengths with practical policy proposals for the Global AI Hub initiative.
Public Awareness and Engagement
Expand public understanding and voluntary participation through online expressions of support and outreach activities.
Strengthening Location Competitiveness
Assess Goyang's location advantages and international cooperation assets, and develop practical, evidence-based policy proposals.
Institutional Cooperation
Explore potential cooperation with Gyeonggi Province, Goyang Special City, relevant national authorities, and other institutions.
Sustainable Operations
Develop policy proposals concerning long-term cooperation frameworks and sustainable operating arrangements.
7. Citizen Participation and Shared Responsibility
The proposed Global AI Hub is not solely a matter for public authorities.
It is also an opportunity for citizens, local communities, universities, research institutions, businesses, and professionals to contribute to discussions about Goyang's future.
The Citizens' Promotion Committee encourages voluntary public participation in the initiative.
Activities include online expressions of support, Committee registration, supporting membership, and public awareness campaigns.

The Global AI Hub in Goyang is a proposed initiative supported by the Citizens' Promotion Committee.
The Committee's proposals do not constitute an official site-selection decision, an approved government project, or a commitment by any international organization.
Future institutional participation, funding, location decisions, and operational arrangements would require appropriate consultation and formal approval by the responsible authorities.
The initiative seeks to promote
responsible international cooperation,
constructive policy dialogue,
and practical preparation
for future opportunities.
