The citizen participation group members attending the training were selected through a recent open recruitment totaling 30 people. They perform the role of partners in the women-friendly city creation project with Namwon City, including monitoring various aspects of the local community environment, proposing policies, and promotional activities to spread a women-friendly local culture.


The citizen participation group plans to carry out various women-friendly city creation activities to make the city safe and livable for socially vulnerable groups such as women, children, the disabled, and the elderly, starting with on-site monitoring of the local living environment.


Mayor Choi Kyung-sik said, "The role of the citizen participation group is more important than anything else in creating a women-friendly city," adding, "We will strive to activate the citizen participation group through capacity-building training and division-based operations."
