Guri City Launches Support Program for Environmental Clubs

[Suwon Ilbo=Um In-yong Reporter] Guri City announced on the 24th that it will recruit 8 participating club teams as part of a project to protect environmental values and promote sustainable growth. The city will conduct an environmental club activity support program targeting elementary, middle, and high school students as well as general citizens.

The environmental club activity support program provides assistance to cultivate citizens' ability to recognize and solve environmental issues on their own. During the project period, the program plans to hold intermediate and final report meetings where participants present their activities and solutions related to their chosen topics and share practical tasks with other clubs.

The application period runs from the 28th of this month through March 11, and a total of 8 teams will be selected to receive 1 million won per team for environmental club research activities.

Mayor Baek Gyeong-hyeon said, "Beyond just the environmental club activity support program, we will make efforts in various environmental policies and citizen environmental education to achieve carbon neutrality and zero practice in response to climate crisis, so that Guri City can become a genuinely eco-friendly city."
