Eunpyeong-gu Launches Community Activities in 5 Villages
Five Villages Selected for Resident Contest to Strengthen Community Capacity in Housing Environment Improvement Project
[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Eunpyeong-gu (Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) announced that five villages were selected as a result of applying for the Seoul 2020 Managed Residential Environment Improvement Project Resident Contest to enable resident communities to continuously operate within the managed residential environment improvement project villages. Full-scale community activities will begin in June.
This contest was organized to promote the activation of resident communities through expanded resident participation and continuous capacity building in the managed residential environment improvement project, and to support the establishment of a social economy and self-reliance foundation through efficient operation support of resident shared facilities.
The selected projects include ▲ Sanse Village Let's Gather! Sanse Workshop ▲ Nokbeon Mountain Village Jang-making and Woodworking Experience ▲ Cypress Village Village Exploration Course and Development of Village Products Using Cypress Wood ▲ Sunlight Village Singing Class and other resident participation programs ▲ Suri Village Village Exploration Guide Training and Resident Participation Programs. Various projects to revitalize resident communities will be promoted from June to the end of November this year.
The selected projects consist of resident organizations proposing customized village community capacity-building projects desired by village residents to solve local problems on their own and improve residents' quality of life. These projects utilize resident shared facilities to communicate together within the community, generate profits, and establish and operate business models using village resources.
