Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam Province is taking a major step to bring environmental education closer to its citizens through the launch of the Changwon Environmental Education Portal. Officially opened on March 3, the portal has quickly become a go-to resource for residents, with usage steadily rising as more people explore the wealth of information and programs available online.
The portal serves as a comprehensive platform where citizens can access a wide range of environmental education resources in one place.
