Ewha and Dior Continue Education Support Partnership for Fostering Talented Women
Ewha Womans University will continue its partnership with the global fashion brand Christian Dior in 2025 with the aim to make joint efforts toward fostering future talent and achieving a sustainable society.
Since 2022, Ewha and Dior have operated the Women@Dior program for Ewha students for the purpose of fostering female talent and promoting gender equality to build a sustainable society. Offered collaboratively by Dior and UNESCO, this program is a global mentoring and educational program dedicated to talented women selected from 75 partner schools around the world. Participants in the program benefit from a wide range of educational opportunities, including scholarships, mentorship with Dior professionals, and special lectures offered through an online learning platform. These experiences help them develop independence and self-confidence, expand networking among women, and build a progressive and sustainable future.

In 2022, Ewha became the first and only university in Korea to establish a partnership with Dior. The two organizations have collaborated together in various fields and operated mentoring and educational programs based on a shared understanding of the importance of women’s education. They also held a Dior autumn fashion show in the Ewha Campus Complex (ECC) building in April 2022. As the partnership continues, Dior has pledged to donate funds in support of the university’s efforts to nurture and educate female talent, as it has done over the past three years, with plans to further strengthen the collaboration starting in 2025.
“Through the continued expansion of our partnership with Dior, we will make efforts to help our outstanding female students with creativity, a daring spirit, and sustainability to grow into future leaders of the global era,” said Ewha President Hyang-Sook Lee. “Maintaining our ongoing partnership with Ewha presents a special opportunity to continue the necessary efforts for inclusivity, autonomy, solidarity among women, and knowledge transmission,” said Delphine Arnault, Chairperson and CEO of Christian Dior Couture.
