Gwangju Dong-gu, Support 1-dong Accelerates Preparation for Establishing Public Daycare Center

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Dong-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 16th that it will officially begin preparations to establish the ‘Jiwon 1-dong District Public Daycare Center’ within the Gold Class 2nd apartment complex in the district.

On the 14th, the district signed an agreement with the Jiwon 1 District Redevelopment Association to transfer buildings, facilities, and equipment necessary for operating the public daycare center to Dong-gu free of charge, and to mutually cooperate to enhance convenience for apartment residents and provide high-quality childcare services.

The district will publicly recruit a consignment company to operate the public daycare center by the 29th. Eligibility includes social welfare corporations, non-profit corporations, organizations, or individuals, and the consignment period will be five years to ensure consistent and stable operation.

After committee review next month, the final selection of the public daycare center operator will be completed, followed by interior remodeling of the daycare center, with plans to open in September.

A Dong-gu official stated, “By establishing a public daycare center that is highly preferred by residents, we will create a childcare environment where residents with young children can entrust their children with confidence and peace of mind,” adding, “We plan to establish more than three public daycare centers within this year to overcome low birth rates and realize a childcare city where children and parents are happy.”
