[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education is calling for submissions of youth activity cases that have been conducted through online media or a combination of online and offline club activities or participatory autonomy activities.

On the 31st, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education announced the open recruitment for the "2nd Seoul-type Innovative Education District Youth Activity Cases." The Seoul-type Innovative Education District refers to autonomous districts where the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, education support offices, Seoul city, autonomous districts, local communities, and schools participate and cooperate together to realize a school-village education community so that children and youth can grow as agents of life in schools and villages.

This recruitment is being conducted to discover unknown hidden cases where youth have grown and changed on their own through voluntary social participation activities and autonomous youth self-governance activities even amid the COVID-19 situation.

Any youth aged 14 to 19 residing in Seoul can apply, choosing to submit in either the essay category or the video category. The application period is from April 1 to April 20.

The grand prize winner (1 person) will receive the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education Superintendent Award and a prize worth 200,000 KRW, while winners of the excellence, merit, and encouragement awards will receive the Chairman Award of the Seoul-type Innovative Education District Central Steering Committee and prizes.
