[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Jun-hee) is recruiting participants for the 2020 Gwanak Innovation District 'Support for Children and Youth Autonomous Activities' project until the 27th.

The open call includes two categories: the ‘Saem-gwa Hamkke Project’ where teachers and students participate together, and the youth policy contest ‘It’s Okay to Be Clumsy’.

First, the 'Saem-gwa Hamkke Project' supports autonomous activities without topic restrictions for clubs composed of teachers and students from local elementary, middle, high schools, and other schools, providing up to 2 million KRW per club.

Also, the 'Youth Policy Contest - It’s Okay to Be Clumsy,' selected as a 2020 resident participation budget project, targets project teams of three or more students currently enrolled in local elementary, middle, high schools, or other schools, or children and youth residing in Gwanak-gu (aged 6 years or older and under 19 years).

This supports activities where youth identify problems themselves, propose policies related to youth, and seek implementation plans, providing up to 5 million KRW per club.

Applications must be submitted by midnight (24:00) on March 27 via the Gwanak-gu Office website (News & Notices → News → Gwanak News), by downloading the required documents and sending them via email (yanggu1104@ga.go.kr).

The district will select support recipients through two rounds of review committees and plans to grant subsidies in early May.

Mayor Park Jun-hee said, “We will continue to actively promote various projects for the proper growth of children and youth, our greatest future asset,” and added, “We ask for much interest and participation in this contest prepared to strengthen youth autonomous capabilities.”
