Yangsan-si, 'Youth Information Platform' Officially Launched in February

Real-Time Information on Jobs, Welfare, Housing, and Education

Yangsan City in Gyeongnam completed the platform construction project at the end of December last year to expand young people's access to information and participation opportunities. After improvements through internal pilot operation, the ‘Yangsan City Youth Information Platform’ will officially open on February 1.

The ‘Yangsan City Youth Information Platform’ is a digital-based system that helps users check and utilize policies from the Gyeongnam Youth Platform and Yangsan City's own policies all in one place.

Youth can easily search and apply for policies in various fields such as jobs, housing, education, welfare, and culture through this platform. This access simplifies the previously complex application process while maximizing accessibility to youth policies by enabling young people to obtain the information they need easily.

Additionally, through the youth talent registration feature, the platform plans to encourage young people to participate more actively in Yangsan City's policies. Building this talent pool aims to provide opportunities for youth to contribute to city administration development through various activities such as committee appointments and policy evaluations.

Furthermore, the platform offers program operations and rental services of the Youth Center in one place, expanding opportunities for youth to participate in diverse activities and supporting easy information checking and application within the platform.

The city plans to establish a familiar brand for youth by selecting a creative and symbolic platform name through a naming contest. Detailed schedules and participation methods will be announced later through the Youth Information Platform.

A Yangsan City official stated, “With the opening of this platform, we expect it to become a communication space for youth beyond simple information provision, greatly contributing to providing information and activating policy participation for local youth.”
