PASCAL Welcomes Gwang Myeong City to PASCAL International Exchanges (PIE)

PASCAL welcomes Gwang Myeong to the PIE exchanges. There has been substantial learning city development in Korea, aided by a strong government interest in this. Gwang Myeong as the first Korean city in PIE is particularly welcome.  It was also the first city chosen as a Korean learning city in 2001 so that its experience has influenced Korean learning city development. 

A point of significant interest in the Stimulus Paper by Professor Don Min Choi exists in the links between Gwang Myeong City and communities in poor areas of Africa, Western Sahara and a community in South East Asia.  It is expected that a second Korean city will be added to the PIE exchanges soon.

Best Regards, Peter
