Namwon-si Accelerates Efforts to Implement Youth Policies

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Namwon City in Jeonbuk announced on the 12th that under the goal of "Creating a Sustainable Namwon with Youth," it has established a youth policy implementation plan for this year and will implement 64 customized youth policies in four areas: jobs, housing and welfare, culture and education, and participation and communication.

In particular, recognizing housing policy as urgent, the city is preparing a housing cost support policy.

This project will provide housing cost support to youth living in monthly rent housing with income below a certain level, and after related procedures, it is expected to be implemented as early as the second half of this year.

Also, the jeonse deposit loan interest support project (within 2% annual interest rate, up to 2 million KRW per year), which was originally only available to newlyweds, will be expanded to general youth.

The happy housing for industrial complex workers, to be built with 120 units in the Noam Industrial Complex District 3, broke ground last March and is scheduled for completion in September next year, and is expected to greatly contribute to youth housing stability.

Mayor Ihwanzoo said, “In the reality of rapidly progressing aging, since youth are the future of Namwon, we will concentrate all administrative power to create a Namwon where youth do not leave and can return, and improve youth settlement conditions by implementing detailed youth policies tailored to each youth’s situation.”
