Korea Fisheries Infrastructure Public Corporation Partners with Suhyup Bank for 'Fishing Village Revitalization'

The Korea Fisheries Infrastructure Public Corporation announced on the 14th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Suhyup Bank to support the revitalization of fishing villages and to practice ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management.

Through this agreement, both organizations will exchange information on promoting fishing village tourism, improving fishing culture, and educating fishery workers, and collaborate on financial counseling, education, and publicity to encourage return migration to fishing villages. They also agreed to mutually cooperate in environmental improvement activities such as reducing carbon emissions in fishing villages, protecting island and coastal environments, and establishing resource circulation systems.

The Corporation plans to share various contents related to fishing village tourism and fishing culture through Suhyup Bank’s non-financial service (BadaGo!) to promote the inflow of related populations, while expanding cooperation in environmental improvements of fishing villages, including island and coastal environment protection and carbon emission reduction.

Park Kyung-chul, Chairman of the Corporation, said, "This agreement brings together public institutions and financial institutions supporting fishing villages, combining their resources and expertise to create great synergy in revitalizing local communities. We will do our best to discover and implement various cooperative projects to revitalize fishing villages and practice ESG management."
