World Ecology Forum JEJU 2026 takes place from Thursday, November 5 through Saturday, November 7. Hosted by Jeju Special Self-Governing Province and organized by the Jeju International Convention Center and People for Earth, it is themed 'Narratives of Nature and the Reconstruction of Society.' The event brings together perspectives from law, business, science, international cooperation and culture to discuss the climate and biodiversity crises.
According to the official program, the first day opens with a 10 a.m. session on ESG and nature-related disclosure, followed by keynote talks on ecological thinking and international cooperation. November 6 covers the rights of nature and Earth law, climate and ecological science, younger generations and the Jeju community. Speakers and detailed session arrangements can change, so consult the official schedule before traveling.
Registration is free on the forum website, and visitors can select multiple days. However, an application is not a confirmed admission: the organizer must send a separate confirmation before attendees can enter. Published daily capacities are 70 on November 5, 90 on November 6 and 30 on November 7. These figures are total capacities, not live remaining-seat counts.
Locations differ by day. November 5–6 sessions are at the Seolmundae Halmang Exhibition Hall in Jeju Stone Park. The November 7 wrap-up and closing are at Eco Land Eco Bloom, while the November 7 nature field trip, 1:00–2:30 p.m., is listed for Gyorae Natural Recreation Forest. Do not treat these sites as one venue. The official registration page identifies November 7 as Saturday, although the headline of a separate regional notice mistakenly labels it Friday.
