Hapcheon-gun Tackles Population Issues with Resident Participation Ideas

Population Youth Policy Idea and Slogan Contest
Held from November 4 to November 27

Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam Province, is hosting the "2024 Population Youth Policy Poster and Idea Contest" to overcome the issue of population decline and promote youth policies.

The contest will be held from the 4th to the 27th and is open to children and all citizens.

This contest is divided into two categories. In the poster category, children residing in Hapcheon-gun (ages 5 to elementary school students) can submit one work per person, and in the idea category, all citizens interested in Hapcheon-gun's population youth policies can participate by submitting one idea per person.

The theme of the poster is "Our Dream! Let's Achieve It Together in Hapcheon!" and should include positive perceptions of marriage, pregnancy, birth, family, and Hapcheon. The theme of the ideas is to propose policies to overcome low birth rates and attract population inflow.

In the contest, grand prizes, excellence awards, and encouragement awards will be given in both the poster and idea categories. The total prize money is 29 million KRW, with the grand prize for the poster category set at 500,000 KRW and the grand prize for the idea category at 1,000,000 KRW.

Entries can be submitted by mail, visit, or email until the 27th. For posters, original submissions are required, so only mail and visit submissions are accepted. Each participant is limited to one entry, and submitted works will not be returned.

Kim Yong-bae, Director of the Future Growth Vitality Division, said, "This contest will be a great opportunity to think about the population decline issue with local residents and discover creative ideas," adding, "For more details about the contest, please visit the official Hapcheon-gun website or contact the Future Growth Vitality Division's Population Youth Policy team."
