HOT ISSUES & NOTICE 2010. 2. 23. 23:52Leaps towards hopeful and bright futures in 2010! Holding 6th NCHM's representative meeting.
On January 10, 2010, the 6th representative meeting of National Cooperative of House Managers (NCHM) was held with its 60 representatives and observers' attendance. In the meeting, NCHM's 5 year evaluations and tasks were shared and action plans in 2010 were approved based on 2009's activities and 5 year project evaluations. The new action plans include ▲ the stabilization of care jobs; ▲ the social re-recognition of care work and the realization of legal protection of care workers; ▲ the reinforcement of identities of NCHM as an alternative economic structure; and ▲ the searching for communication and solidarity at regional levels.
There was a section for introducing participants by region and regional performances, presided by the chairperson of the Seoul branch, prior to the representative meeting. The Seoul branch that had danced to the music of 'Superman' won the first prize and the Jeonju branch having showed our resolutions with white headbands around the head got the second place. Initially, only prizes for the first winner were prepared. However, all the regional branches performed very well, so the second winner was awarded, too. Nevertheless, we felt something lacking, because other branches also prepared so much.
After the regional performances, a lecture entitled 'social economy and the NCHM' was delivered by Moon Bo-kyung, a general manager of Korea Foundation for Social Investment. The chairpersons of the KWWA and its regional branches also joined the meeting to offer their congratulations.
