"Offering a Ladder of Hope"... National Pukyong University Helps Discover Dreams and Talents of At-Risk Youth

Experience Project Held at Aloysio Giji 1968

Pukyong National University (President Jang Youngsoo) is carrying out a project to provide a "ladder of hope" for "protected youth."

Pukyong National University announced on the 7th that it held the "Youth Hope Ladder PKNU Guardian Dream and Talent Development Program" at Aloysio Base 1968 on the 6th.

This four-day program, conducted by PKNU Guardian, the university's volunteer group, aims to help local protected and vulnerable youth discover and nurture their dreams and talents.

About 40 PKNU Guardian students collaborated with local organizations such as Mansasonyeon and Aloysio Base 1968, participating in hands-on activities such as cooking, woodworking, horticulture, media, engineering, crafts, and arts with around 80 youth from youth recovery centers and local children's centers in Busan, Gimhae, and Changwon.

Pukyong National University students acted as older brothers, sisters, and mentors to the protected youth, engaging in activities such as making bulgogi bake, daily woodworking, creating companion plants, oil pastel painting, digital drawing, making rattan crafts, and wire drawing.

The PKNU Guardian members who participated in these activities are university students belonging to the PKNU Social Contribution Volunteer Group. Since 2021, they have been supporting local youth in developing their dreams and talents and becoming self-reliant in society through annual experiential, sports, and counseling activities.
