Nowon District Office Employees Study Hard in the Morning...Bright Future for Nowon

Nowon-gu Operates 'Insight Nowon ? Morning Special Lecture'

Every second Tuesday of the month, 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM, 6th floor small auditorium

Participatory lectures enabling in-depth Q&A through prior sharing of lecture content

Expected to promote competitive Nowon-gu policy development by acquiring the latest administrative demand trends

Nowon-gu (Mayor Oh Seung-rok) announced that it will strengthen employee capabilities to develop competitive policies for Nowon-gu.

This is to proactively respond to new administrative demands by understanding rapidly changing social atmospheres and issues, and to enhance public services through effective policy development.

The meaning of ‘Insight’ in ‘Insight Nowon Morning Special Lecture (hereafter Morning Special Lecture)’ refers to the ability or intuition to properly understand specific situations, problems, or people by reflecting on them.

The district selects topics reflecting the latest administrative trends such as ▲climate change ▲bio ▲branding ▲bio to conduct special lectures, aiming to cultivate new perspectives and insights to enhance Nowon's competitiveness.

Experts on each topic are also invited to ensure the professionalism of the lecture content.

The lecture format is also changed from the traditional style to a ‘learner-participatory’ approach. By sharing the lecture content in advance with attendees, high-quality Q&A sessions are enabled on the day of the lecture.

The district expects that this transformation in the lecture format will allow the Morning Special Lecture to break away from the conventional one-way lecture style and expand into in-depth policy discussions.

The first lecture held on the 11th was on the topic of 'Aging Population Measures,' with Professor Lee Dong-woo, Special Appointment Professor at Korea University Institute for Aging Society, invited as the lecturer. The lecture focused on ‘support measures for increasing leisure and cultural activities for the elderly,’ leading to dense discussions and high satisfaction among attendees.

The Morning Special Lecture is held once a month, on the second Tuesday from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM at the 6th floor small auditorium of the district office. Employees at grade 5 or above, such as department heads, are required to attend, and employees at grade 6 or below who wish to attend may do so on the day without prior registration.

Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, said, “To respond swiftly to the rapidly changing administrative environment, continuous learning of the latest administrative trends is necessary,” adding, “Since strengthening employees’ capabilities is directly linked to the quality of public administrative services, we will continue to do our best to improve public service satisfaction through high-quality educational programs.”
