Gyeonggi Province will conduct a pilot project to provide policy information to newly relocated single-person households.


This project is intended to ensure that single-person households do not miss out on necessary information or benefits by providing tailored policy information during the resident registration process. It was selected as the best proposal in last year's "Single-Person Household Policy Proposal Contest" conducted by Gyeonggi Province.


Single-person households are at higher risk of social isolation and tend to avoid revealing themselves, which increases the likelihood of being excluded from institutional support. In response, Gyeonggi Province has selected four cities and counties?Gwangmyeong, Seongnam, Guri, and Paju?by comprehensively considering regional balance and the demand for single-person household policies. The pilot project will be implemented in these areas until the end of this year.


At the administrative welfare center counters where single-person households file their resident registration, mini banners and leaflets introducing support policies for single-person households will be displayed. Through a QR code included in the leaflet, users will be guided to the "Gyeonggi Province Single-Person Household Portal" and policy information for each city and county.

Currently, Gyeonggi Province is promoting several projects for single-person households, including: the Single-Person Household Hospital Companion Project, the Single-Person Household Meal Opportunity Program, the Middle-Aged Chat Salon, the Life Tips Basket, the AI Elderly Companion Service, and the Women's Single-Person Household Safety Package.


Gyeonggi Province will check the number of QR code accesses every month to analyze the promotional effectiveness and will continue to improve the provision of customized information to policy recipients based on these results.



Lim Yongkyu, Director of the Family Policy Division of Gyeonggi Province, said, "We hope that this pilot project will make it easier for single-person households to access the information they need," and added, "After verifying its effectiveness through the pilot operation, we will consider expanding the project based on the demand and conditions of each city and county."
