Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to Host 'Aviation Security Competition' on the 2nd

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 1st that the '2022 Aviation Security Competition' will be held on the 2nd at Incheon Airport.

This year's Aviation Security Competition selected the importance of aviation security and the spread of aviation security culture, emphasized by the recent wartime situations and international affairs as well as ICAO, as the main themes.

Starting next year, a competition targeting the general public and students will also be held to incorporate aviation security into daily life.

In this competition, about 70 aviation security personnel selected through preliminaries in three fields (passenger screening, cargo screening, and aviation security) from 15 airports nationwide will compete in detecting explosives and safely handling them to select the 'Best Aviation Security Personnel of 2022.'

Additionally, through the Aviation Security Culture Spread Content Contest, excellent content in the UCC and slogan categories that advance to the finals will be selected by voting at this year's competition site. The best UCC will be broadcast on the official YouTube channel of Incheon International Airport Corporation, and the slogans will be used in aviation security culture spread campaigns at airports nationwide.

The 17th Aviation Security Experts Seminar will also be held. Industry, academia, and research related to terrorism and security, including government agencies such as Korea Aerospace University, the Agency for Defense Development, the National Counter-Terrorism Center, the Army Headquarters, Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, and the Korea Coast Guard, as well as private companies like Unmanned Solution (autonomous mobility) and FineVT (wired and wireless aviation business), will gather in one place to conduct presentations and discussions.
