□Date;April 5, 2011


At a meeting held April 5, 2011, KRIHS selected Daegu city to host the 2012 EAROPH International Congress. During previously held presentations attended by KRIHS research members and relevant officials, including KRIHS President Park Yang-ho, Dr. Kang Mi-na, research fellow at KIRHS, introduced the EAROPH International Congress while candidate cities, including Daegu and North Jeolla Province, made presentations on their willingness, in the right conditions, to host the congress. EAROPH is a non-government multi-sectoral organization focusing on consolidating and promoting a better quality of life, housing, and planning in Asia and the Pacific region. Last October, the KRIHS president played a leading role in winning the bid to host the 2012 EAROPH International Congress in Korea. Korea has already had plenty of experience in hosting EAROPH International Congress: Seoul in 1972 and 1990 and On-yang, South Chungcheong Province, in 2000. Daegu city was selected due to its extensive experience of hosting international meetings. Korea EAROPH will form a preparation committee with Daegu city, which will be in charge of the promotion and operation as well as the theme selection of the 2012 EAROPH International Congress.
