Support for the Self-Employed and Small Business Owners, Stimulating Consumption
Establishing a Solidarity and Cooperation System to Revitalize Local Businesses

As the livelihoods and economy have frozen amid the state of emergency and impeachment crisis, local small business owners and self-employed individuals are facing difficulties, prompting Gwangsan-gu in Gwangju to take urgent countermeasures.


On the 14th, Gwangsan-gu announced that it would implement emergency measures to stabilize and restore the local economy. The district plans to develop new policies needed in the current situation, focusing on support for self-employed individuals and small business owners, stimulating consumption, expanding priority purchases of locally produced and sold goods, inducing price stability, and creating jobs for vulnerable groups.


Through these efforts, the district aims to finalize a comprehensive plan next month and swiftly execute practical projects and a supplementary budget for livelihood support.


Additionally, the district will promote the establishment of a broad solidarity and cooperation network so that companies, social organizations, sports associations, and clubs can participate in revitalizing the local economy.
