Gyeonggi Climate Insurance is a policy insurance implemented from March this year to minimize health damage to residents caused by extreme weather phenomena such as heatwaves and cold waves, and to resolve the climate divide by focusing support on climate-vulnerable groups. It operates by automatically enrolling all residents of the province and provides payments for heat-related illness and cold-related illness diagnosis fees (100,000 KRW once a year), and infectious disease diagnosis fees (100,000 KRW per incident).

Park Dae-geun, Director of the Environmental Health and Safety Division of Gyeonggi Province, said, "Through this contest, we expect residents to deepen their empathy for the climate crisis issue and have an opportunity to think about the policy insurance aimed at resolving the climate divide."
