[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yoo Seong-hoon) announced that the midlife career support facility, Geumcheon 50 Plus Center (Director Kim Mi-seong), has been selected as an executing agency for Seoul City's ‘50+ Volunteer Job Project’ and ‘50+ Internship Project,’ providing 90 middle-aged and older adults with opportunities to work in new environments.

The Geumcheon 50 Plus Center plans to discover participants with experience and capabilities, dispatch customized personnel to each activity site, and support participants with activity and education expenses.

The center is recruiting 40 middle-aged and older adults to participate in the ‘50+ Internship Project’ until May 2.

Anyone aged 50+ residing in Seoul can apply through the Seoul 50+ Portal.

Participants for the ‘50+ Volunteer Job Project,’ whose recruitment has already been completed, will be assigned to senior job support agencies and facilities for the disabled as part of the ‘Community Welfare Project Group’ after attending an online launch ceremony and preliminary training on April 29, starting in May.

Yoo Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, “I hope all participants in the project gain valuable new experiences and a sense of social contribution,” and added, “We will actively support the 50+ generation dreaming of new opportunities for their second act in life to challenge new jobs and design sustainable work and activities.”

Meanwhile, last year, the Geumcheon 50 Plus Center dispatched 40 participants to 31 activity sites through Seoul City's ‘50+ Internship Project,’ achieving results with 14 participants continuing sustainable work and activities.
