Seongbuk-gu, Seoul's Jeongneung 3-dong (ward head Lee Ki-won) and Kookmin University have joined hands to create a venue for cooperation for the development of the local community.
On the 3rd of this month, the Jungneung 3-dong Community Service Center hosted a resident participation program called the Self-Governance Class, which was attended by about 60 students from Kookmin University and members of the Jungneung 3-dong Community Council. This program was linked to a class on regional development theory in the Department of Public Administration at Kookmin University, and it was a practice-oriented learning experience that combined students' analysis of real-life regional issues with residents' opinions.
At the event, five teams made presentations on the following topics: ▲development of policies based on local data, ▲establishment of a digital archive, and ▲introduction of a village time bank. In particular, the residents' council members participated directly in the discussions, and practical collaboration was achieved by discussing the local conditions and improvement directions for each proposal.
The 'Village Time Bank', which has attracted attention, is a proposal for local residents to share their talents and time to realize mutual care, and has attracted attention as a way to strengthen the sustainability of resident self-governing activities and community resilience. The students focused on the design of a specific system for feasibility and participation.
Kwon Young-seok, the head of the Jeongneung 3-dong Residents' Council, said, “Voluntary participation of residents is the most important key to solving local problems,” and “I hope that more residents will become interested in local changes through this opportunity with the younger generation.”
Professor Ha Hyun-sang of Kookmin University said, “Resident autonomy has a true meaning when participation is expanded and representation is secured at the same time,” and emphasized, “If programs such as ‘One Resident Autonomy, One School’ continue, Jeongneung 3-dong will be able to establish itself as a model case of resident autonomy in Seongbuk-gu.”
Lee Ki-won, head of Jeongneung 3-dong, said, “The ideas presented today have suggested directions that are administratively feasible, so we will continue to communicate and support the development of the region with the residents‘ association.”
Meanwhile, the Jeongneung 3-dong residents’ association is taking the lead in solving local issues by discovering various programs and agendas that actively reflect the opinions of residents, and is seeking practical changes through continuous collaboration with Kookmin University.
