[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] The National Gwangju Science Museum announced on the 26th that it held the 2022 Integrity Practice Pledge Ceremony on the 21st to mark the 9th anniversary of the institution's establishment, pledging the participation and practice of public officials to realize a clean public service society.

At the ceremony, the head of the institution, officials, and labor union representatives attended and pledged to establish a culture of integrity through ▲ compliance with laws and principles ▲ prohibition of improper solicitation ▲ prohibition of abuse of position and authority and mediation or solicitation ▲ prohibition of acceptance of money and entertainment ▲ fair and honest performance of duties.

The pledge content also reflected the conflict of interest prevention system for public officials implemented in May, embodying a more effective anti-corruption will.

Jeon Tae-ho, Acting Director, said, "This pledge ceremony is an occasion to reaffirm the National Gwangju Science Museum's commitment to establishing a clean public service society," and added, "I hope all employees actively participate in practicing integrity with one heart and one mind."

Meanwhile, the National Gwangju Science Museum has formed an Integrity Innovation Promotion Team centered on the head of the institution and continues efforts to spread a culture of integrity, such as activities by integrity keepers.

As a result, it has been recognized externally for its achievements, such as acquiring ISO 37001 (International Standard for Anti-Corruption Management Systems) certification and receiving a "Very Excellent" grade in the 2021 Anti-Corruption Policy Evaluation of Subordinate Institutions hosted by the Ministry of Science and ICT.
