The "2025 Guri City Urban Regeneration University" will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from October 14 to October 30, for a total of six sessions. Since urban regeneration emphasizes the importance of residents directly participating in solving community issues, this program is designed to teach residents the basic concepts and specific methods of urban regeneration, while also developing their capacity to independently plan and implement projects.


The program will take place at the Guri City Women's Happiness Center and will consist of five lectures and one field trip to a leading site. The lectures will cover a wide range of topics, from the basic concepts of urban regeneration and domestic and international case studies to methods for resident participation and strategies for building sustainable communities. The field trip will provide participants with hands-on experience in applying these concepts in real-world settings.


The program is open to Guri City residents and those living within the Guri City area, with a total of 20 spots available. There is no tuition fee, and anyone interested in urban regeneration is welcome to participate.


To apply, participants should search for "Urban Regeneration University" on the Guri City Hall website's public notice board, download and complete the application form, and submit it either in person or via email between September 22 and October 10.



Baek Kyunghyun, Mayor of Guri City, stated, "Urban Regeneration University is a program that empowers residents to take the lead in solving local issues and creating a better living environment," adding, "We hope that many interested citizens will participate."
