Seocho-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jeon Seong-su) announced on the 10th that it has recently signed a business agreement with the Seocho-gu Family Center to provide various health management support for multicultural families.


The main contents of the agreement include operating booths and mutual cooperation support during large-scale multicultural events, and health support for multicultural families and marriage immigrants through the Seocho-gu Metabolic Syndrome Management Center. As part of this, the Seocho-gu Public Health Center conducted a "visiting metabolic examination" for Seocho-gu Family Center staff on the 29th of last month.


Next month, they plan to participate in the Seocho Family Sports Day event to provide health checkups and consultations for multicultural families and residents. They will also actively cooperate in health management for multicultural families by producing and distributing customized health promotional materials in four languages.


Through this, Seocho-gu expects to help prevent and manage various diseases for multicultural families who may be relatively vulnerable to health management and contribute to improving their health levels.


In addition, Seocho-gu is carrying out various projects for multicultural families. A representative project is "Damanse Seocho" (A World Made Together Seocho), which includes ▲ "Dahana Education" that educates on multicultural discrimination, human rights, and awareness improvement ▲ "Daitseo Sports Day," where families from diverse cultural backgrounds harmonize and communicate ▲ "Dasinna Family Festival," enjoyed by Seocho families together.



Mayor Jeon Seong-su said, "Through this agreement, I hope that multicultural families who have had difficulties in health management due to language and cultural differences will be able to enjoy a healthy daily life."
