| Subject | Experiments on the New 'Space Welfare' of Gang-dong, "The Power to Change Children, Education, and Culture" | ||
|
Gangdong-gu, Seoul, which has a population of about 550,000 after a massive reconstruction project, is opening an era of "space welfare" that focuses on creating living infrastructure (SOC), including convenience facilities for local residents. With the Gangdong-type space innovation project, the company plans to create spaces that are closest to the lives of residents, including childcare and education spaces, cultural facilities, and senior spaces and so forth to continue to increase the creation of public spaces where people meet and life can change. On the 8th, Gangdong-gu announced that it will first apply the concept of 'space welfare' from 'school'. This is the application of "space welfare" to the actual public education place, the Happiness School project, which says, "If space changes, children change." By making corridor, lobbies and libraries to a brighter atmosphere, the school has been transformed into a creative and community cultural space that responds to future social education. "As the school changed, my child became brighter," said Kim (43), a parent of Cheonho Middle School. "In particular, before changing, Cheonho Middle School library had to read books under heavy furniture arrangement and dark lighting, but when it was transformed into a bright library with a cafe atmosphere, it turned into a place where students enjoy reading and their hobbies." So far, a total of 39 schools have participated in space improvement and color improvement, and plans to create five more schools this year. "Child-Mom Gangdong Childcare City," a space that parenting together, is also relieving residences’ concerns about childcare. It is a free playground for children, and a comfortable communication channel for parents. Children's play programs, toy rental, etc. help residences raise their children. Currently, the program operation of the facility has been suspended due to Corona 19, but Cheonho and Gangil stores can use non-face-to-face services (toy library) when applying for online reservations. The district will resume operations in the future depending on the Corona 19 situation. It also plans to open six additional child and mother Gangdong childcare cities by this year to enhance convenience and accessibility of using facilities for families. "According to a study, children's concentration has increased when change the color of the wallpaper white to blue. Also when raise the ceiling in the lab, children’s concentration has increased. Space changes people." said Lee Jung hun, a head of Gangdong-gu Office. Plus, he emphasizes that we can change children, education and culture happily. In addition, he said "It is regrettable that we have some restrictions on the use of space that people gather due to Corona 19, but I hope that the space in Gangdong will be a comfort of life and a place remembered as a happy place for tired people." |
