[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family will strengthen COVID-19 vaccination promotion for out-of-school youth aged 12 to 17 at youth facilities and online.


On the 14th, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family announced that it will operate an intensive promotion period until the end of this month to ensure that out-of-school youth are not excluded from vaccination, vaccination certification, and the use of the quarantine pass (negative test confirmation system).


Youth who wish to receive the vaccine can make a reservation two days in advance on the pre-reservation website or visit a vaccination center on the day without a reservation to get vaccinated.


One-on-one promotion through phone calls and text messages will be strengthened for youth using the 220 out-of-school youth support centers (Kkumdeulim Centers) nationwide. Vaccination information will also be provided on communities frequently used by out-of-school youth, such as the qualification exam or homeschooling communities, Instagram, and KakaoTalk channels.


Vaccination guidance will also be provided at youth facilities such as Youth Counseling and Welfare Centers, Youth Welfare Support Facilities, National Youth Training Facilities (5 locations), Youth After-School Academies (332 locations), Youth Activity Promotion Centers (17 locations), Youth Activity Information Services (e-Youth), Naeil Irum Schools (13 locations), and Youth Cyber Counseling Centers.



In July, the Ministry supported out-of-school youth preparing for college entrance exams to receive priority COVID-19 vaccination, with over 5,000 people vaccinated.
