Leading the Way for 'Integrity in Gyeongbuk'... Workshop Held by Gyeongbuk Development Corporation and Two Other Organizations

Gyeongbuk Development Corporation (President Lee Jaehyuk) held the Cheongnyeom Gyeongbuk Ieum workshop on June 20. 'Cheongnyeom Gyeongbuk Ieum' is an integrity and human rights council composed of three affiliated and funded organizations under North Gyeongsang Province: Gyeongbuk Development Corporation, Gyeongbuk Culture and Tourism Organization, and Gyeongbuk Technopark. Since the council was formed in 2024, it has been promoting a variety of activities to spread a culture of integrity and respect for human rights, with the aim of realizing 'Integrity in Gyeongbuk.'

About 30 people attended the workshop, including integrity and human rights practitioners and leaders from the three organizations that make up Cheongnyeom Gyeongbuk Ieum. The participants discussed joint tasks to spread a culture of integrity throughout North Gyeongsang Province, such as a joint review of a checklist to prevent abuse of power by high-ranking officials and discussions on ways to promote a campaign for donating books on integrity and human rights. They also watched a film to foster harmony among organizations and to internalize a culture of respect for human rights.

Afterward, the participants visited Hahoe Village in Andong, which represents the 'Cheongbaekri spirit'?a core value of integrity that public institution employees should uphold. There, they had the opportunity to experience the heritage of integrity and explore ways to put these values into practice themselves.

Lee Jaehyuk, President of Gyeongbuk Development Corporation, stated, "'Cheongnyeom Gyeongbuk Ieum' is a meaningful council where public institutions in North Gyeongsang Province come together with one heart and mind to enhance transparency and human rights sensitivity. I hope it will become a symbolic representative of Gyeongbuk that comes to mind when people think of 'integrity,' rather than remaining merely a council among organizations. Through this workshop, we made efforts to actively share our corporation's know-how on integrity and human rights, such as achieving the highest comprehensive integrity grade for two consecutive years. By combining these efforts with the experience and wisdom of each organization, we aim to realize a 'transparent and compassionate public sector.' I ask for the continued interest and support of the residents of North Gyeongsang Province."
