Justin Wheeler oversees all global awareness and grassroots efforts for Liberty in North Korea. His vision is to shift public perception on North Korea away from the politics and towards the people. Through innovative campaigns and programs, he strives to engage people around the world and create direct and meaningful ways to support the North Korean people.

In early 2008, Justin went to the border of North Korea and China to document the stories of North Korean refugees in hiding. While there, he was detained by the Chinese police on suspicion of helping North Korean refugees. This inspired Justin to get more involved on a day-to-day level. In the summer of 2008, he met Hannah, the current CEO of Liberty in North Korea and together, launched a new vision and strategy for LiNK.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
