[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] The launch ceremony for the Suwon Multicultural Family Circle was held on the 9th at the Suwon Multicultural Family Support Center.
Members from six circles supported by Suwon Metropolitan City participated in the launch ceremony: △Suda-ne Restaurant (experiencing diverse international food culture) △Ga-hee (learning gayageum performance) △Green Earth (environmental cleanup activities) △Rainbow Cool (ukulele performance and busking) △Entering through Books, Exiting as Drama (book recitation events and dramatic readings) △Learning and Growing Together (interpreter-counselor capacity building).
The multicultural family circles, composed of marriage migrants from various countries, will carry out activities through December this year.
Suwon City is implementing the "Multicultural Family Circle Activation Support Project," which supports circle meetings composed of seven or more multicultural family members.
A city official stated, "We hope that members will exchange information and communicate closely through the multicultural family circles, where both Korean nationals and foreign residents experience various cultural activities together and share know-how about living in Korea. We hope this will help multicultural family members settle into Korean society." The official added, "Suwon City will continue to make efforts to build a local community where native residents and multicultural neighbors coexist harmoniously."
