Interim Report of Yeongju City Council Research Group 'Study on Measures to Prevent Solitary Death'

A research group composed of Yeongju City Council members in Gyeongbuk will present a study on measures to prevent solitary deaths.

The Yeongju City Council Solitary Death Prevention Measures Research Group (led by Representative Kim Jeongsuk, along with Kim Hwasuk, Kim Juyeong, Jeon Gyuho, Kim Byeonggi, Woo Chungmu, Son Seongho, and Kim Seyon) will hold the "Yeongju City Council Solitary Death Prevention Measures Research Group Midterm Report Meeting" on the 19th in the city council's small conference room.

The Yeongju City Council Solitary Death Prevention Measures Research Group is a council member research group formed last April with the goal of developing policies to prevent solitary deaths among single-person households, which have emerged as a social issue.

This midterm report meeting is an opportunity to share the interim results of the ongoing research, where various opinions on preventing solitary deaths were presented based on the analysis of the actual conditions of single-person households, domestic and international cases, and literature materials.

Representative Kim Jeongsuk said, "To prevent solitary deaths, a dense social safety net and a local community safety net that can restore broken human relationships are essential," adding, "We will work closely with the executive branch to consider policy support measures that can promote cooperation between the public and private sectors."
