The Republic of Korea has officially joined First Lady Melania Trump’s Fostering the Future Together initiative through a newly established Technology Prosperity Deal with the United States. This deal marks a significant step in a global coalition of first spouses from various nations working together to promote technology, innovation, and education aimed at empowering children. First Lady Trump expressed pride in the partnership, noting Korea’s expertise in technological advancements and potential contributions to the initiative’s goals.

Fostering the Future Together was launched during the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly and aims to provide advanced technology, including artificial intelligence, to support children, parents, and educators worldwide. Major technology firms have committed to offering these tools at little to no cost to participating countries, ensuring accessibility of the resources. National first spouses will collaborate with their governments to identify the best available technologies for educational enhancement and to create safe digital environments for youth.

As part of this international effort, First Lady Trump intends to host the inaugural meeting for Coalition Members at the White House in 2026. This meeting will serve as a platform for members to share insights and recommendations based on their experiences and commitments to the initiative. The Fostering the Future Together initiative builds on the BE BEST platform, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation in advancing the welfare of children in today’s digital landscape.
