Gwangju Nam-gu Conducts 'Visiting Human Rights Education' Close to Residents

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, is conducting a small group-style "Visiting Human Rights Education" to raise sensitivity to human rights and spread a human rights community culture where everyone enjoys a dignified life.

Nam-gu announced on the 11th, "This year, if social welfare facilities, senior citizen centers, or small groups of residents apply for human rights education, a professional instructor will visit the location to conduct the human rights education program."

The visiting human rights education is conducted in a way tailored to the participants' level of understanding.

In particular, customized instructors are assigned according to the characteristics of the education targets such as children, people with disabilities, the elderly, and migrants, and various techniques such as field trips and hands-on experiences are used so that the subjects can easily understand the education topics and explanations.

Last year, despite the spread of COVID-19, it was recorded that 978 residents in the district participated in the visiting human rights education, with high demand for the education from daycare centers and organizations related to people with disabilities.

The visiting human rights education will continue until December, and anyone from social welfare facilities, institutions, organizations, or resident small groups interested in human rights issues can apply for on-site education.

However, to ensure smooth progress of the education, applications must be made at least two weeks in advance, and the number of participants is limited to 10 or fewer.

For inquiries related to the education, detailed information can be obtained by checking the notice on the Nam-gu Office website or by calling the Nam-gu Office Audit Department.

A Nam-gu official stated, "We are expanding the visiting human rights education to general citizens and youth to spread consensus on human rights issues," and added, "We will create a beautiful human rights world where everyone enjoys a dignified life in an equal society."
