A total of 19 people attended the meeting, including 12 members of the Youth Policy Committee and 7 representatives from the Youth Social Safety Net Council.


The meeting saw broad participation from not only internal city officials and city council members, but also external expert members from the Youth Policy Committee and the Social Safety Net Council. The goal was to ensure a balanced reflection of diverse perspectives and voices from the field in the policy-making process. Yangsan City focused discussions on actively incorporating objective and professional external opinions into its policies, rather than limiting itself to internal viewpoints.


The final report presented directions for expanding youth participation, policy tasks by sector such as housing, employment, and mental health, as well as support strategies considering various youth groups, including isolated and reclusive youth.


Participants offered specific suggestions regarding feasibility, institutional linkage, and practical application in the field. The city plans to incorporate the suggestions made during the meeting into the final plan to enhance the completeness of its youth policy initiatives in 2025.



A Yangsan City official stated, "Youth policy is not a single project, but a key area that determines the overall sustainability of the city," adding, "We will continue to reflect voices from the field to develop support measures that young people can truly feel."
