This seminar, themed "Historical Travel with Nature," featured an opening ceremony, lectures, and presentations of outstanding nature conservation activities on the first day, followed by visits to historical sites such as the Namhae Exile Literature Museum and Yi Sun-sin Martyrdom Park on the second day.

The seminar served as a platform for sharing the strengths of nature conservation activities between the Yeong and Ho Nam regions and provided a diverse forum for discussions on environmental preservation, strengthening the bond between the two regional councils.
