[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kang Sharon] Yangsan City in Gyeongnam announced on the 7th that it was selected for the ‘2020 Urban Agriculture Space Creation Project’ contest ‘Jayeon Gadeuk’ and has promoted projects to create a nature-friendly urban environment targeting multiple public facilities, establish urban agriculture space infrastructure, and reduce indoor fine dust.

The City Agricultural Technology Center invested a total project cost of 5,000 won secured through the contest selection to complete the Green Healing Office project using indoor green interior such as vertical gardens and plant landscaping in two locations: the City Hall General Civil Service Office and the Agricultural Technology Center lobby and office spaces, providing a nature-friendly environment.

By arranging various air-purifying plants in the bleak office spaces, it is expected to help improve employees’ work efficiency and relieve stress through fine dust reduction and visual effects. Citizens showed positive responses to the City Hall facilities decorated with a pleasant indoor environment and green spaces.

It will be a healing space for citizens exhausted by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

A representative of the Agricultural Technology Center said, “We will continue to promote various projects to expand green spaces in the city, enhance urban residents’ understanding of agriculture and rural areas, and further establish a foundation for urban-rural coexistence.”
