The meeting, which began at 7 p.m. to encourage active participation from young people in municipal affairs, was attended by around 40 participants, including Anseong City officials and youth members of the Youth Policy Subcommittee. Attendees engaged in in-depth discussions on the future direction of Anseong’s youth policy.

This research project aims to build on and further develop the achievements of the 1st Basic Plan (2022-2026) by establishing a medium- to long-term five-year roadmap that will be implemented from 2027 to 2031.

The main research areas include: ▲ an analysis of the current status of youth in Anseong City; ▲ an evaluation of the outcomes of the 1st Basic Plan; and ▲ the development of strategies to designate Anseong as a youth-friendly city. Notably, this plan defines young people not merely as beneficiaries of policy, but as key actors in policy design and implementation, with a particular focus on identifying customized projects optimized for the unique characteristics of the region.

An official from Anseong City stated, "This research project is a crucial process for scientifically analyzing the real voices of young people and incorporating them into policy," adding, "We will strive to serve as a reliable pillar for young people by reflecting vibrant opinions from the field."

The city plans to carefully incorporate the feedback discussed at the kickoff meeting into the research process and finalize the “2nd Basic Plan for Anseong City Youth Policy (2027-2031)” early next year, based on the high-quality research results.
