- Population：424,964 People (2013) - Number of households：171,419 Households (2013) - Area：20.12 km2 (2013) - Major industries：Guro-gu has been one of the largest industrial cities and export hubs in South Korea after the Korea Export Guro City Industrial Complex was completed in Guro-gu in the 1960s. Of the total area, 34.6% (6.97km2) is still slated for industrial or semi-industrial operations. There is a mega machine tool complex in Guro-gu, playing a central role in supporting the local economy. The manufacturing-centered Guro Industrial Complex was reborn as the Seoul Digital Industrial Complex in November 2000 in line with the change in global industrial trends. And the KICOX Venture Center was completed in the complex to house about 530 ventures. The complex is growing as the mecca of cutting- http://www.guro.go.kr edge digital technology in the IT industry. At the same time, the completion of Subway Line 7 increases access to Guro- gu. When other manufacturing plants are relocated to other cities, Guro-gu will have greater potential to become a center of industry, economy, and distribution in Seoul in the 21st century.

(2) major activities, projects, plans of Healthy City Guro-gu 1) Guro Manse Hope Project This project is designed to assist residents in managing their own health care, so that residents can feel fulfilled and content with their health and a good neighborhood. Residents are encouraged to walk 10,000 steps and carry out everyday activities, and they can manage their physical activity extent and the results of body composition analysis through the website of the Guro Community Health Center. ▶ Health Resident Community Operation This community is organized to motivate residents to live a healthy lifestyle by enabling them to suggest programs they want and operate the desired programs in collaboration with the GCHC. Residents also recruit community members, manage programs, and evaluate the results of programs while the GCHC reviews the proposed programs, support for instruments and lecturers, and evaluates the outcomes. Major programs are related to physical activity, nutrition and controlled drinking. ▶ Guro Manse Zone This zone is installed in the Guro-gu Physical Fitness Promotion Center to perform body composition analysis for residents registered with the Guro Manse Hope Project website. A sports physical therapist also assists residents in controlling their physical activity and health by advising them about the results of their body composition analysis. For those who cannot use this service on weekdays, they can use the same service on Saturday by visiting the GCHC. Thus this program is designed to benefit as many residents as possible. 2) Chamsari Cooking class for fathers: “My father becomes a cook” ▶ This class is developed to provide a program especially for fathers because they are the least beneficiaries of welfare programs provided by the GCHC and because they work full-time. However, their role in housekeeping is increasing. So the cooking class during weekends can guide them to have healthy eating habits, prevent chronic diseases, and narrow the nutrition gap between genders by providing nutrition education. ▶ This program is also aimed to strengthen men’s ability to adapt to a healthy diet, which may increase their chances to engage in normal household chores and subsequently improve family relationships. This program also provides an opportunity for male baby boomers to enjoy happy and satisfying retirement years and strengthen their abilities which may be useful in rejoining the job market and starting a second life.

3) Drinking and smoking prevention project for growing children ▶ Although it is illegal to sell alcoholic beverages and cigarettes to teens under 19 years old, many retailers sell alcohol and cigarettes to minors, and youth obtain them easily, ignoring the laws. Drinking and smoking may cause damage to others indirectly, not to mention health risks for those who drink or smoke. ▶ To protect teens against drinking or smoking, adverse effects of drinking and smoking are monitored, a campaign plan is established, and an education program is provided for changes in the attitudes of teens and adults pertaining to drinking and smoking. Action plans were devised for each group to identify: 1) a safe place from indirect smoking; 2) places where teens smoke frequently; and 3) stickers warning about the illegal sale of alcohol to teens under 19 years old and liquor advertisement posters and drinking-related media coverage. Once the results of this project are ready, they can be either incorporated into policy or covered by the media. 4) The Olle walking trail is developed in Guro-gu ▶ A walking trail is developed by connecting four mountain trails, three trails beside streams, and two trails in residential areas, and exercise machines are installed sparsely along the walking trail to promote health and the quality of life of residents. ▶ The walking trail include hiking trails, walking path beside streams, bridges, wood roads, and an observation platform in addition to many exercise machines and rest places for pleasant sports and recreational activities. ▶ Connected trails (between two parks and between a park and stream) ▶ A map of the walking trail is made for the use of residents. ▶ The trails is introduced via an Internet café along with activities of the resident community for promotional purposes. 5) The Pureun Arboretum ▶ This arboretum, located at the southwestern tip of Seoul Metropolitan City or Guro-gu, is the first arboretum completed by the city. Because of its natural environment, it is also called Eco-Island. ▶ The arboretum comprises an area of 103,000㎡in Hang-dong, Guro-gu, and the pre-existing reservoir is strategically included in the arboretum. It serves as a habitat for nearly 1,700 plant species in 25 different theme gardens. There is also a book café and a forest education center where education contents such as gardening and eco-system experiences are offered.
(3) Major strengths of Healthy City Guro-gu 1) We launched a health promotion project in which residents play a leading role by recruiting members, as well as choosing and managing education programs to strengthen their ability. As a result, residents are able to resolve health-related issues faced by the community on their own. Meanwhile, the community health center plays a guiding role to keep the project going. ▶ The Guro Community Health Center defined its mission, vision, and values in a workshop where representatives of the residents attended. The mission, vision, and values provide the basis for activities conducted for Healthy City development. Residents’ participation in health promotion projects continue as they are included in various programs pursued by the GCHC, including meeting with school food service providers, customized improvement in diet prepared by restaurants and school food service providers, and expanded operation of physical activity programs in collaboration with Green Mothers Club and community operation. 2) The Guro Olle walking trail, which the Mayor of Guro-gu promised during his election, and a walking path designed for 10,000 steps are created to provide the optimal environment for exercising and help residents live a healthy lifestyle. 3) We actively offer and support physical activity and nutrition programs designed for local child care centers, the disabled, multicultural families, and low-income families. We especially offer a cooking class for adult men during the weekend in consideration of their lack of access to programs of the GCHC and nutrition attitude. Thus, we make an effort to minimize health inequalities in different groups of people, defined by region, age, and gender.

(4) Major progress of Healthy City Guro-gu Community-led Health Promotion Project ▶ We came up with the “Community-led Health Promotion” project because we consider that our approach should be focused on the entire community rather than individual residents to boost the health of the city effectively. Under the project, residents are motivated to participate in programs voluntarily and identify and resolve health-related problems in the community. Thus, residents are actively involved in the project by planning, executing, and evaluating programs conducted to promote health of the community under the project, playing a leading role in creating changes. In contrast, the community health center plays a guiding role, departing from its original role of providing services. This fact makes our project unique. To implement this community-led project, we have to choose a community. After analysis of health indicators of residents in Guro-gu, we selected the Jatjeol Village in Gaebong 1-dong because its health level is the lowest in Guro-go, excluding Dongs where the foreign population is high. Residents in Jatjeol Village are encouraged to participate in the project, and they are given programs to be completed on their own. Once they complete a program, they evaluate their performance, and they start a new program. Meanwhile, residents experience success and share a feeling of fulfillment. They also contributed to devising the mission, vision, and values of Healthy City Guro-gu. The culture of debate becomes a typical element in Jatjeol Village when discussing community issues, leading to major decisions on an anti-smoking area and renovation of the bus stop in the village. As residents plan and execute programs on their own without intervention from city officials, they have a passion for each program and try to solve problems. Residents become acquainted with each other and get used to having meetings, debates, and agreements while participating in the project, forming a close social network. The more residents participate in the project, the stronger the social network is formed, making Guru-go healthier. We will continue developing community-led projects and creating an environment to increase their awareness of the importance of a healthy lifestyle and their ability to improve their own health care. Their mid- and long-term performance will be evaluated by a panel of experts and through focus group interviews.

2. Hwa-Seong is one of the most dynamic cities in the Republic of Korea. Its suburbs, along with the newest IT technologies, offer new residential areas where both advanced and educational industries are provided. Our city knows that the citizens of Hwa-Seong wish the greatest for their health at all times. There are many factors that contribute in achieving well-being of an individual and thus it’s becoming more difficult for people to take certain actions to promote their health. This is why we realized the necessity of re-arranging current social conditions in order to promote the health of our citizens. To do so, the city of Hwa-Seong has chosen health promotion as our first priority and since July 20th2007 we have been registered under the Alliance for Health Cities(AFHC) of the WHO. Furthermore, between 2007 and 2010, we ran a total of 54 projects approaching the community personally but also socially in hope of improving quality of their life-style. Also, we are currently in the process of our second project, which comprises of 48 different enhancements(infrastructure expansion, quality of life improvement, disease state control/prevention, health promotion and environment maintenance)which began from 2012 and is planned to be completed by 2015. Conclusively, the city Hwa-Seong will continue supporting and working to our fullest to provide every possible opportunity to promote health and well-being of our citizens. Than kyou.

3) Major strengths of your Healthy City Healthy City project should promote involvement and change in local health policy, strengthening community capacity, decreasing disparities in health, advocating new approaches to public health. It provides public health leadership through mechanisms that recognize and mediate the interests of different groups in the community. Junggu Healthy City Project has six characteristics.
(1) Junggu Healthy City Project is based on a commitment to health. The Project pledges to advocate a clear political commitment to health and equity in all sectors. It commits to recognize health and its maintenance as a major social investment and challenge. It promise to acknowledge people as the main health resource, to support and enable them to keep themselves, their families and friends healthy through financial and other means, and to accept the community as the essential voice in matters of its health, living conditions and wellbeing; (2) Junggu Healthy City Project emphasizes community empowerment and community participation. Community must lead in initiating, shaping and undertaking health promotion. Community need to have the rights, resources and opportunities to enable his contributions to be amplified and sustained. In this context support for community capacity building is particularly important. The Project aims at fostering strong social networks and support. The Project makes people to participate in health through their lifestyle choices, their use of health services, their views on health issues and their work in community groups. The Project promotes more active roles for people in all of their areas. The Project provides means by which people have a direct influence on project decisions and, through the project, on the activities of city departments and other organizations. (3) Junggu Healthy City Project emphasizes the intersectoral cooperation. The term “intersectoral cooperation” describes the process through which organizations working outside the health sector change their activities so that they contribute more to health. The project creates organizational mechanisms through which city departments and other bodies come together to negotiate their contribution to such action. (4) Junggu Healthy City Project adopts health marketing strategy. Health promotion supports people to exercise more control over their own health and over their environments, and to make choices conducive to health. However community members are free to choose, or to reject the recommendations of Healthy City Project. Because the power of choice ultimately resides with community members, Junggu Healthy City Project focus its activities on understanding and responding to the community member’s perspectives using health marketing approach. Health Marketing involves creating, communicating and delivering health information and interventions using customer-centered and science-based strategies to protect and promote the health of diverse populations. (5) The Junggu Healthy City Project emphasizes healthy public policy. Health promotion goes beyond health care. Housing, environment, education, social service and other programs of city government have a major effect on the state of health. It puts health on the agenda of policy-makers in all sectors and at all levels, directing them to be aware of the health consequences of their decisions and to accept their responsibilities for health. Health promotion policy also requires the identification of obstacles to the adoption of healthy public policy in health and non-health sectors, and ways of removing them. The aim must be to make the
58 Jung-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea 4
healthier choice the easier choice for policy-makers as well. (6) The Junggu Healthy City Project adopts setting approach. The success of Junggu Healthy City Project is reflected in the degree to which policies that create settings for health are in effect. The Project achieves their goals when homes, schools, workplaces and other parts of the urban environment become healthier settings in which to live. Political decisions, intersectoral action, community participation and innovation promoted through the Junggu Healthy City Projects work together to make healthier settings.

Vision
Overview (1) Organizational structure of your Healthy City (secretariat, steering committees, planning process, evaluation mechanisms, if any).
(2) Example of major activities, projects, plans Healthy City Siheung had already begun planning basic actions under the "Siheung Healthy City 21" model in 2004 and made progress before joining Alliance for Healthy Cities (AFHC) Western Pacific in 2008. In 2013, we created a new functional division (Life & Love Team) within Siheung Community Health Center as part of the effort to accelerate progress in Healthy City development. Because Healthy City is focused on the improvement process rather than visible outcomes, Siheung wanted to have more attention and participation from citizens and let city officials support their actions. So its action plans for 2014 aimed to increase citizen awareness of Healthy City development as follows; First, an orientation was held to discuss and share the issues to be resolved through Healthy City projects with citizens. To strengthen the effort to realize the objectives of Healthy City projects, involved personnel exchange their opinions in workshops and the functional manager reported the interim progress.
75 Siheung City, Republic of Korea 3
The divisions pursuing a Healthy City project under objectives that they set using their ideas carry a board on their door, saying "Health is the ultimate goal of our task," as a way of stimulating them to work on Healthy City projects with passion. The involved city officials also hold a year-end evaluation process in which citizens and experts will be invited to assess the progress along with them, and the divisions that prove good performance will be rewarded. Thus we make various efforts to ensure that health factors are incorporated into the progress we make. ⇒ Major objectives: Healthy park construction, healthy living conditions (villages with specific theme such as hope or lifelong learning and schools), healthy environment (safe and happy city for children and women, urban agriculture promotion and expanding parking space Exercise-based healthy lifestyles (walking, riding bikes and health promoting programs for pregnant women and senior citizens). Healthy equality (operation of expatriate worker welfare center, support for job seekers and wellness of those with severe disabilities and integrated support system for families in crisis.) Second, citizen-led campaign is pursued to increase citizen awareness and participation in Healthy City development in which citizens can identify issues to be resolved and suggest the desired Healthy City projects. Some citizens are trained as lecturers who can brief NGO organizations and various socialization groups formed for pastime activities of Healthy City development. Thus, participation of citizens is provided as the foundation for realizing Healthy City Siheung. In addition, the effort to draw attention and encourage participation of citizens including NGO organizations is still underway by holding forums, lectures and open discussion. Siheung City will create a Healthy City Support Center with the aim of driving Healthy City strategy in a more strict way in which new legislation is created as a guideline for Siheung-specific Healthy City development and health is a crucial element in policy-making.
(3) Major strengths of your Healthy City (some strong points of your Healthy City, based on your judgment). ① Healthy City Siheung envisions 'the most desirable place where people and nature co-exist in harmony, moving forward into the future.' Thus, its vision is consistent with the Healthy City concept, and its management philosophy - life, participation and decentralization also advocate for a Healthy City. Siheung is poised to become an environmental-friendly, energetic city in the future. ② The city's geographical surroundings of ocean water on the southwest coast of Gyeonggi Province, is coupled with rich green environment to make Siheung City an ideal Healthy City. ③ Citizens are very conscious about health and wellness in the era of aging society. ④ By creating a functional division responsible for Healthy City development, the city boosts its efforts to pursue Healthy City projects efficiently ⑤ Not only mayor but city officials pay a lot of attention to and have great passion for Healthy City development.
(4) Major progress your city has made by using the Healthy Cities approach or some difference you have observed in your city since you have worked to create a Healthy City. Healthy City Siheung has carried out many projects aimed at health and safety of citizens although it did not use the word "health" when naming each project. The Siheung Healthy City 21 Model, which was developed for Healthy City development in 2004, brought about improvements in parks, traffic, roads and villages. Meanwhile, the concept of health extended to the surrounding environment beyond individual health. Projects completed under the Siheung Healthy City 21 include Siheung Citizen Sunlight Power Station (Jan 11, 2012), a theme forest called Jonam-dong Forest Park (243,257m2), agricultural practices promotion (An Urban Agricultural Fair), water quality improvement in seven streams and reservoirs for a healthy ecosystem, a newly nominated special cultural coastal zone on Oi Island (May 29, 2012), the Siheung Business Center (Oct 29, 2012), financial support for small- and medium companies and self- employed businessmen (Won 49.6 billion in 2010 and Won 90.5 billion in 2013), retailer-led efforts to differentiate retail strategies in four marketplaces, creation of public service jobs. The local economy is boosted as a result. Significant progress is also made in the education sector of Healthy City Siheung as a result of increased investment into education (three times increase: KR8.8 billion in 2010->K$23.3
76 Siheung City, Republic of Korea 4
billion in 2013), the nomination of innovative education complex (23 schools) and the introduction of innovative school systems into 14 schools, free and meal services using environmental-friendly food materials (preschool children age 3 to 5, elementary and middle school students), the opening of school meal support center (Sept 5, 2011) and safe school life support (full day baby care center, child care center, special education assistant, school counselor assigned to all schools for the first time in the nation). In addition, equality of welfare is achieved through the expansion of welfare systems (Siheung City 1% welfare foundation, full day child care center, etc), safety is increased in the city (CCTV installations 328 in 2010 -> 897 in 2013, Healthy City is settled and support for community activities is provided as part of the welfare system. Based on these accomplishments in Healthy City development, We strive to make the ongoing Baegot New Town project a healthy town comprising a pleasant park and eco-friendly schools by setting up a steering team with experts and citizens from the design stage. In 2013, we also received CPTED accreditation. The park planning of Baegot New Town also won the president's award for landscape architects in IFLA-Asia Pacific Regional. . Baegot New Town is being developed under Healthy City concepts from the beginning for the first time in the nation.
