Jeonbuk Province Launches Pilot Project to Revitalize Sharing Economy

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Jeonbuk Province announced on the 23rd that it will actively promote the 'Shared Economy Activation Pilot Project' to solve regional problems and revitalize the community through sharing.

This public contest project, which has been promoted as a gubernatorial pledge project since last year, was planned to support sharing activities of local residents to solve social and economic problems such as individualism and social polarization, and to promote the effective use of idle resources.

Applications for the contest will be accepted by the sharing departments of city and county offices until the 9th of next month, and organizations, corporations, and companies wishing to contribute to solving social problems through sharing are eligible to apply.

City and county offices will discover sharing projects suitable for local conditions and recommend two organizations or companies to the province after reviewing eligibility and conducting on-site inspections.

The province plans to form a judging committee of up to five members to evaluate based on criteria such as sharing promotion effect, utilization of local resources, project execution capability, and self-funding ratio, and select the winners within next month.

Na Seok-hoon, Head of the Job and Economy Headquarters of Jeonbuk Province, said, "We will accelerate the activation of the shared economy by creating a shared economy model that can effectively utilize the region's idle resources."
