This education is designed to help students understand the rights and responsibilities of democratic citizens as sovereigns.
Our country has been granting the legal right to vote, known as suffrage, to 18-year-olds since the 21st National Assembly election in 2020.
The Ulsan Education Office, ahead of the 21st Presidential Election on June 3, has guided schools to educate students and train teachers using videos, textbooks, and promotional materials provided by the Central Election Commission.
On the 14th, 70 third-year students received their first education at Daesong High School, and on the 21st, about 120 students were educated at Gangdong High School.
The education was conducted by professional instructors from the Ulsan Election Commission who visited schools directly to tailor the content to the students' level. It focused on practical topics such as the role of voters, election procedures, and election campaigns that youth can participate in.
