More than 100 journalists from around the world attended a conference in Korea last week focusing on the future of their roles and responsibilities in a rapidly changing world and building new ties that transcend borders.
A total of 107 journalists from 74 countries took part in the 2013 World Journalists Conference in Seoul with visits to Suwon, Daejeon, Suncheon and Changwon to gain broader insight into the host country.
The journalists were especially impressed by the environmental policies being implemented by the former industrial town of Changwon in the southeastern part of the country, which has been shedding light on environmental issues by conducting eco-friendly urban projects and various efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Participants visited Changwon on April 18 and toured Junam Wetlands Park, the nation’s largest migratory bird habitat.
