Opening of Seodaemun Women's Room Center
Remodeling of Seodaemun-gu Women's Center Over 7 Months... Pilot Classes Run Until This Month, Regular Classes Start in October
[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Seodaemun-gu (Mayor Moon Seok-jin) will hold the opening ceremony of the ‘Seodaemun Women’s Room Center’ at 3 p.m. on the 6th through the Seodaemun-gu Office and Seodaemun-gu Urban Management Corporation YouTube channels.
Located on the basement first floor of the Seodaemun Culture and Sports Center, this center is a remodeled space of the ‘Seodaemun-gu Women’s Center,’ which has been operating since 1999, after seven months of renovation.
The space was designed through various opinion collections, including an online residents’ briefing session held by the ‘Operation Improvement TF Team,’ composed of private experts, public officials, and Urban Management Corporation personnel.
The event will proceed with an operation improvement progress report, congratulatory messages from guests, an online facility tour, and congratulatory messages from residents.
While the existing Women’s Center mainly operated hobby and cultural lectures, the Seodaemun Women’s Room Center expands its functions to support employment and start-ups and serves as a hub space for women’s networks.
The center has been operating pilot lectures online since last month and has also recruited tenants for the ‘Startup Room,’ an office within the center.
Going forward, the center aims to establish itself as a complex cultural space supporting women’s empowerment, leadership development, and women’s independence and growth.
Mayor Moon Seok-jin said, “We look forward to the role of the Seodaemun Women’s Room Center in the reemployment of women with career experience and the creation of women’s jobs in the local community.”
Next month, women start-up companies selected through a public announcement will move into the center, and various regular courses such as one-person media, digital convergence, and SNS digital marketing will be offered.
