APEC 2023 in Gyeongju: Youth Vlogger’s Zero-Waste Journey Sparks Global Connections

Calling all changemakers! 🌐 The 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting is rolling into Gyeongju from Oct 31–Nov 1 under the banner “Building a Sustainable Tomorrow: Connect, Innovate, Prosper.” While leaders hash out the big ideas, youth voices are stealing the show.

CGTN rolled out the “Act To Action” social campaign, inviting young folks from APEC member economies to share their stories on global governance. It’s a prime spot to flex your sustainability hacks and cultural vibes! 💬

Take South Korean vlogger Kim Jeong-won: back in college, she joined the “Zero Waste Challenge,” swapping disposables for reusable bottles, sorting trash like a pro, and rocking her fave tote bags on shopping sprees. Beyond greener habits, she soaked up pineapple tarts and cultural meetups from fellow APEC economies, sparking a passion for global exchanges.

Now, Kim hopes these cross-border connections keep growing and that we all bridge gaps one eco-friendly step at a time. From Jakarta’s bustling streets to Manila’s vibrant markets, share your zero-waste hacks and join the movement! ✨
