As Korea’s leading institution for public human resources development (HRD), the National Human Resources Development Institute (NHI) has been dedicated to cultivating competent public officials, playing a pivotal role in supporting administrative excellence and national advancement.
Public HRD today is undergoing a profound transformation, facing both unprecedented challenges and new opportunities brought about by rapid technological innovations - particularly as we transition into the Agentic AI Era.
In response, the NHI is redoubling its talent development efforts with a renewed sense of purpose. Recognizing the need to align with these technological changes, the Institute is focused on equipping public officials with future-oriented competencies that will enable them to navigate the complexities of a fast-evolving administrative environment.
As part of these efforts, the NHI annually hosts the Global Public HR Conference, which brings together government officials, academics, and HR professionals from around the world.
The 2026 Global Public HR Conference will be held on Friday, October 30, 2026, from 13:00 to 18:00 at the Myeongdong Post Tower Conference Hall in Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Under this year's central theme, "New Roles and Competencies of Public Officials in the Agentic AI Era: Orchestrating Technology and Realizing Public Value," this conference serves as a vital platform for participants to engage in meaningful dialogue on emerging trends and innovative practices. By facilitating international collaboration and knowledge exchange across sessions focused on work redesign, digital humanity, and best practices in AI application, the event aims to develop insightful approaches that support the continuous advancement of public HRD in a rapidly changing governance landscape.
