[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The 2023 Suncheonman International Garden Expo Organizing Committee (Chairman Heo Seok) and the Suncheon Volunteer Center (Chairman Lee Geum-ok) announced on the 16th that they signed a business agreement at the Suncheon City Hall small conference room to recruit and operate volunteers for the successful hosting of the 2023 Garden Expo.


At this agreement ceremony, both organizations pledged to take the lead in the successful hosting of the 2023 Expo through organic cooperation, including ▲ recruiting and operating volunteers for the 2023 Suncheonman International Garden Expo ▲ administrative and financial support such as payment of volunteer activity expenses ▲ support for boosting volunteer morale and improving working conditions ▲ cooperation on major projects and creating a momentum for expanding participation of all citizens.


Unlike the expo held 10 years ago, the 2023 Garden Expo venue has expanded throughout the entire downtown area of Suncheon City, requiring active participation from citizens.


In particular, as the role of volunteers has become more important for operating the expanded expo venue, this agreement will serve as a starting point for promoting the 2023 Garden Expo and creating a momentum for citizen participation.


Chairman Heo Seok said, “It is encouraging to be able to sign a business agreement with the Volunteer Center about 400 days before the expo opening. The active participation of citizens in this marathon journey lasting six months will determine the success or failure of the expo. I ask the Suncheon Volunteer Center to actively cooperate so that we can successfully host the 2023 Garden Expo together with the 290,000 citizens of Suncheon.”



Meanwhile, the 2023 Suncheonman International Garden Expo is scheduled to be held for six months from April 22 to October 22 next year across the entire Suncheon City, including Suncheonman National Garden, Suncheonman Wetland, and Dongcheon.
