Gwangju Dong-gu and Korea Racing Authority Conduct 'Clean Zone Campaign'

Gyerim 1-dong in Dong-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, announced on the 1st that it recently conducted a 'Clean Zone Campaign' together with the Korea Racing Authority Gwangju Branch and others.

The 'Clean Zone Campaign' is one of the agreements made in January between Gyerim 1-dong, the Korea Racing Authority Gwangju Branch, Dong-gu Senior Welfare Center, and the Dong-gu branch of the Korea Senior Citizens Association to create a "safe and clean livable village." The campaign focuses on educational activities addressing environmental disturbances such as household waste, drinking, loud noise, and illegal parking within 500 meters of the Korea Racing Authority Gwangju Branch.

About 70 participants, including members of the Gyerim 1-dong Residents' Autonomy Committee, Wi Han-song, the head of the Korea Racing Authority Gwangju Branch, and staff, took part in the campaign, conducting illegal parking enforcement and environmental cleanup around the branch.

Gyerim 1-dong plans to carry out the Clean Zone Campaign regularly once a month and will also hold an evaluation session at the end of this year to assess environmental changes before and after the project implementation.

Kang Hwan-won, head of Gyerim 1-dong, Dong-gu, Gwangju, said, "I thank the cooperating institutions and officials who participated in the volunteer work to create a pleasant street environment," adding, "We will continue to work closely between the public and private sectors to build a happy village community."

Meanwhile, Gyerim 1-dong, which received an excellence award in the public-private cooperation category from Gwangju Metropolitan City last year, is further strengthening public-private cooperation this year and actively promoting customized support projects for low-income vulnerable households, such as emergency in-kind support (Gyeongyang Village Ant Pantry).
