Dongseo University Selected for Local Community Film and Tourism Promotion Project
On March 23, it was announced that DSU, a leading university in the field of cultural contents, was selected as the host institution to operate a three-year community win-win cooperation support project. The project will have a budget of 120 million won, and will last until December 2022.
Managed by the Busan Institute for Talent and Lifelong Education, the aim of the project is to utilize the human and material infrastructure of Busan universities to resolve local issues and support local universities in reinforcing their roles as pivotal institutions for innovation.
Specifically, DSU will be implementing an “Evergreen Project” that focuses on solving problems facing the elderly community in the region. This will be achieved by facilitating the pursuit of various hobbies and experiences among the elderly in Gijang-gun to prevent loneliness, and to assist in job seeking and creation for income generation and life stability. The project was planned in close consultation with the Gijang-gun elderly community through such means as local government demand surveys, and will take advantage of DSU’s position as a leader in the best-in-class film and video-related specialized fields in Korea.
Also planned as part of this project, DSU will promote: an Evergreen Film University, Evergreen Performances, Evergreen Village Media Education, Evergreen Agency Operation, and an Evergreen Idea Contest. Additionally, an Evergreen Film Festival based on the results of the community consultation will be held. The project will include the Gijang-gun community, the Busan Community Media Foundation, the Busan Film Commission, the Busan Economic Promotion Agency, and I.A.LAB.
Professor of Design Kim Hyeong-woo, Director of the DSU Regional Collaboration Center and in charge of the project, said, “It is very meaningful for DSU to be able to continue its work of supporting local communities through the newly introduced Evergreen Project. The project also builds on DSU’s and the Gijang-gun region’s strengths in meeting the demands of the film and video sector, and, in connection with the soon-to-be-completed Busan General Filming Center, will be the basis for revitalizing Gijang-gun’s film and tourism sector.”
