Civic Engagement and Dialogue

Members of the Busan Autonomous Police Policy Advisory Group also participated, explaining the purpose of the autonomous police system in an accessible manner and directly engaging with students and citizens. Their presence helped to vividly convey the vision of a shared community-based policing initiative.

Since its launch in March 2025, the Busan Autonomous Police Policy Advisory Group has contributed professional insights on all areas of autonomous policing and has helped improve citizen-centered public safety services.



Chairperson Kim Cheol-jun stated:
“This campaign was a meaningful opportunity to come together with students, citizens, and the policy advisory group to promote everything from drug and sex crime prevention to traffic safety culture.
We will continue to work closely with universities, police, and civil society to create an autonomous police system that delivers safety in everyday life.”
