CPI Participants Survey

Since 2005, the CPI Program has been attended by 1,200 participants from 105 countries around the world. The Korea Foundation for International Culture Exchange (KOFICE) implemented the <2020 CPI Participant Survey> in preparation for its 15th anniversary in the following year to collect feedback from the program’s participants.

This survey allowed KOFICE to identify what the past participants of the program have engaged with after engaging the CPI Program and how their experiences in the program had helped their development in their areas of expertise.

Furthermore, the survey allowed the CPI Secretariat to update the contacts of past participants, especially for those who had changed their email addresses or other contact information.

The following items provide a summary of the participants’ answers to the survey.

Most of the results were collected from multiple-choice questions. The question No. 4 features some of the common answers provided by the participants, as introducing all answers on that item would be too expansive for this article’s purpose.

We at KOFICE, the CPI Secretariat would like to thank the participants for their responses to the survey once again and invite all participants, who want to update their contact information, to reach the Secretariat at cpi@kofice.or.kr.

With this, we look forward to communicating and exchanging the latest CPI Program with all of you in the future. Thank you!

4. Please describe any activities and/or interactions with fellow CPI participants since participating in the CPI.

We operate social media platforms (such as Facebook groups or Instagram) with some CPI friends who participanted in same year, to share various information related to the program.


We also use email and messengers to keep in touch with many of our past participants.


Because all of our participants, both past and present, are active members of the global art and cultural community, we also use collaboration projects and other fieldwork to continue our relationship with one another.


Hosting conferences, workshops, classes, or participating in these events allow us to share information as well.
