The presentation was conducted by live online streaming (ZOOM) of six citizen policy groups that passed the first preliminary screening, showcasing four months of research results.

In accordance with strengthened social distancing guidelines, only two members per team attended the presentation, and the 100-member online evaluation group judged through non-face-to-face online voting.

As a result of the final judging, the 'Youth Creative Community' team, which presented the Pohang-style youth return-to-rural support policy, won the gold prize. The 'Microorganisms' team, which presented an eco-friendly long-life garden, won the silver prize, and the 'Policy Research?the right' team, which presented consulting services for apartment management, won the bronze prize.

Mayor Lee Kang-deok of Pohang said, "I hope that the citizen policy group, which started for the first time this year, will be further activated with the active interest of citizens," and added, "We will strive to develop practical creative ideas into policies that can enrich citizens' lives."

Meanwhile, the citizen policy group was implemented for the first time this year. As a result of the public recruitment in August, 70 people from 18 teams participated, and after the first preliminary round in November and the final presentation on this day, the 2020 activities were concluded.
