As a plan for promoting the Seoul Compact, this study proposed three plans: ① establishing a strategic promotion system of the Seoul Compact, ② deriving basic ideas and action tasks of the Seoul Compact, and ③ institutionalizing plans for strengthening the effectiveness of the Seoul Compact. Specific contents of each plan are as follows. The establishment of strategic promotion system is prepared as the organization of participating subjects, the public discussion for Concluding Seoul Compact, and the diversification plan for the spread of Seoul Compact. In the derivation of basic ideas and action tasks of the Seoul Compact, the configuration system for the preparation of the agreement was established. Items and specific contents in the agreement were derived. Lastly, the institutionalization plan for strengthening effectiveness of Seoul Compact was composed of implementation and support system. The implementation system consisted of the following three components: establishment of action plan, monitoring system of Seoul Compact, and evaluating system of Seoul Compact. For the support system, legal institutionalization plan and organizations for implementing Seoul Compact were suggested.
