Green Boat sailed off first in 2005, the year commemorating the 60th anniversary of Korea’s independence. It offered an opportunity for participants from Korea and Japan a special time to get along and come to understand each other, through discussion and exchange, while sailing in a unique space on a boat. It is jointly hosted by Peace Boat, the leading NGO in Japan and more than 10,000 citizens of Korea and Japan have been sailing together for historical, cultural, environmental and peaceful harmony of East Asia. Green boat is a venue of strong bonding of citizens of Korea and Japan and a field site of eco tour.
