Ajou is designated as the Unification Education Center for Southern Gyeonggi Province: Expected to lead in building unification infrastructure 
 
[2016.04.05]
 
 
Ajou University was designated as the Unification Education Center for Southern Gyeonggi Province by the Institute for Unification Education under the Ministry of Unification in the '2016 Regional Unification Education Centers Project.' Through the Project, President Dong Yeon Kim of the University will lead unification education programs as the Chairman of the Unification Education Council for Southern Gyeonggi Province. 
 
 
The Ministry of Unification is operating a total of 17 regional Unification Education Centers, including Seoul, Southern Gyeonggi Province, Northern Gyeonggi Province, Incheon, Gangwon Province, and Busan. The Centers are responsible for various unification-related education programs as the unification education takes root in local communities.
 
 
The Unification Education Center for Southern Gyeonggi Province is set to provide local citizens and students with opportunities to easily access unification-related programs, including Unification Lectures Involving Citizens, a Lecturing Tour for Local Elementary, Middle, and High Schools, and First-hand Experiences of Unification, etc.
 
 
In addition, Ajou plans to contribute to building local unification infrastructure by spreading unification-related opinions among citizens through expert forums and workshops with the Unification Education Council members. The University is the only institution to be designated by the Ministry of Unification as the Unification Education Leading University and the Regional Unification Education Center. Ajou was earlier chosen as the 'Unification Education Leading University,' along with five universities including Seoul National University, Soongsil University, and Chungnam National University. Through the 'Unification Education Leading University Project,' the Ministry aims to promote unification education at universities by developing unification education models and expanding related subjects, etc.
