[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] The Gyeongnam Office of Education announced on the 26th that it will conduct a one-month "Resident Participation Budget Proposal Project Intensive Contest" from July 1 to 30, reflecting the proposal projects of city and provincial residents in the 2021 budget formulation.

The Resident Participation Budget System is a system that guarantees residents' opportunities to participate in the budget formulation process to improve the efficiency of budget operation and enhance the transparency and integrity of local education finances.

The Office of Education will switch to a proposal project contest method from this year to receive specific, practical, and innovative ideas from provincial residents.

Anyone who is a resident of Gyeongnam can participate in the proposal, and the project must be applicable to Gyeongnam education policy or school education.

Project proposals can be submitted year-round, and proposals received by the end of July will be reviewed by the responsible department and deliberated by the Gyeongnam Office of Education Resident Participation Budget Committee to be reflected in the 2021 Gyeongsangnam-do Education Special Account budget.

Proposals received will be processed as proposals for the following year's projects. Proposal application forms can be submitted online through the Gyeongnam Office of Education website, or downloaded and submitted by visit, mail, or fax.

Seok Cheol-ho, Policy Planning Officer of the Gyeongnam Office of Education, requested, "We ask that more residents participate in the resident proposal project contest introduced for the first time this year to realize 'Gyeongnam Education where learning is joyful and schools are nurtured together.'"
