Jungnang-gu, 2023 ESG Idea Contest

ESG Policy Idea Contest Open Until July 14... Covering Environment, Social, and Governance Areas

Participation Open to Jungnang-gu Residents, Students Attending Schools in Jungnang-gu, and Workers

20 Winners Selected Based on Creativity, Efficiency, and Economic Feasibility, with Prizes Up to 300,000 KRW

Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Gyeong-gi) is hosting the "2023 ESG Idea Contest" until July 14 to create a "Sustainable Future, Jungnang ESG."

Since February, the district has been laying the foundation for a sustainable development city by starting expert advisory meetings for the introduction of Jungnang-type ESG policies, establishing a basic plan for the policy introduction in March, and finalizing the ESG brand slogan in May.

The "2023 ESG Idea Contest" aims to enhance these efforts by incorporating diverse ideas from residents to develop more substantial policies.

The contest theme is "Policy Ideas to Practice ESG in Daily Life," covering three areas: Environment (climate, carbon neutrality, recycling, renewable energy, etc.), Social (jobs, socially vulnerable groups, community safety, etc.), and Governance (resident autonomy, public-private cooperation, etc.).

The contest runs until July 14 and is open to Jungnang-gu residents, students attending schools in Jungnang-gu, and workers. Participants can download the proposal form from the announcement/notice board on the Jungnang-gu Office website, complete it, and submit it via the responsible official’s email or through the People’s Petition System (Gukmin Sinmungo). For those who find online participation difficult, submissions can also be made by mail or in person at the Planning and Budget Division on the 4th floor of the district office.

The district will evaluate submitted ideas based on creativity, efficiency, economic feasibility, scope of application, and effort, selecting a total of 20 winners: 1 Grand Prize, 2 Excellence Awards, 3 Encouragement Awards, and 15 Participation Awards. Winners will be announced in August and awarded prizes up to 300,000 KRW.

Ryu Gyeong-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, stated, "We will actively reflect the creative and diverse opinions of our residents in ESG administration to advance as a sustainable development city," and added, "We ask for your interest and participation in the ESG contest."
