[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] The Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education announced on the 26th that it has provided frontline schools in the province with guidelines for responding to water shortages to overcome drought.

This plan includes various measures that schools can implement to save water, such as education on water conservation, posting and broadcasting promotional materials, installing water-saving facilities and equipment, and setting up rainwater or groundwater storage tanks.

In particular, they urged active participation in broadcast education during breaks and morning/evening homeroom times, as well as education on daily water-saving guidelines.

They also recommended holding contests for school-led water conservation promotions and student council-organized promotional campaigns.

Additionally, budgets will be allocated for the installation of rainwater and groundwater storage facilities, focusing on areas severely affected by drought.

Superintendent Kim Dae-jung said, “I hope that the habit of saving water will be practiced in schools and spread to homes to achieve practical effects,” adding, “At the education office level, we will actively respond to overcoming drought through the installation of water-saving facilities and storage tanks.”
