[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hyun] Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do recently announced on the 15th that it held a resident capacity-building training to effectively promote the ‘2022 Fishing Village New Deal 300 Project’ application project.

Through a demand survey for the 2022 Fishing Village New Deal 300 Project application, the county invited Professor Kang Pyeong-nyeon from Mokpo National University to provide education to the heads of fishing villages and village chiefs from 22 fishing villages that applied, focusing on residents' understanding of the project, enhancing resident participation, and ways to open fishing cooperatives.

This capacity-building training aims to establish a resident-led preliminary project plan by supporting resident capacity education through expert consultation and the formation of local councils from March to August, as well as preparing the preliminary project plan through advanced site visits.

An official from the Jindo Port Development Division of Jindo-gun stated, “This capacity-building training for responding to the application project is not a formal education led by Jindo-gun but is designed to support the activation of the resident community by establishing a preliminary project plan through proactive participation of village residents, especially by discovering specialized projects. We plan to apply for the project targeting areas that genuinely need fishing village regeneration.”

Meanwhile, the ‘Fishing Village New Deal 300 Project’ is a living SOC project aimed at modernizing essential infrastructure such as outdated piers, promoting integrated development of fishing villages and ports reflecting regional characteristics, revitalizing the local economy, and creating sustainable vitality.
