[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Sharon] Changwon City, Gyeongnam, held the 1st regular general meeting of the Environmental Capital Changwon Forum for 2022 at 10 a.m. on the 21st in the Citizen Hall.

At this regular general meeting, the city first discussed the revision of the Environmental Forum regulations, and to continue the global brand of ‘Environmental Capital Changwon,’ it resolved to change the forum name from ‘Changwon Environmental Forum’ to ‘Environmental Capital Changwon Forum,’ and then proceeded to discuss the 2022 activity plan in earnest.

The city declared ‘Environmental Capital Changwon’ in November 2006 to promote environmentally sound and sustainable development, and judged that a dialogue platform among related organizations and groups was necessary for exchanging environmental information and establishing a future vision, thus establishing the ‘Changwon Environmental Forum’ in June 2007.

This forum holds an environmental forum annually to enhance citizens’ environmental awareness and quality of life, and plays roles such as discovering and proposing various agendas on environmental conservation and climate change, and exchanging and cooperating with domestic and international environmental organizations.

In particular, in 2021, the 28th forum was held under the theme ‘An Environmental Education City Changwon Created Together by Environmental Citizens,’ presenting a blueprint for a future environmental education city and proposing a systematic direction for environmental education suited to regional characteristics through in-depth discussions.

Jeong Hye-ran, the 2nd Vice Mayor, said, “The Environmental Capital Changwon Forum has been a driving force in seeking solutions to environmental issues through expert discussions in various fields every year,” and added, “I ask you to take the lead in realizing a sustainable environmental city Changwon in the future, and I especially urge you to gather continuous interest and wisdom to solve the environmental problems the city is facing.”
