Abstract

This paper explores the economic spillover effects of forest therapy projects of Korea Forest Service, using the 2011 Input-Output Tables of Bank of Korea. We consider total expenditures on the construction of 20 forest therapy bases and Baekdudaegan Forest Therapy Base, and operation of 3 forest therapy bases. During the 8 years of 2010-2017, we find that these forest therapy projects generate 698 billion wons of production, 456 billion wons of value-added, and 8,176 new jobs.

본 논문은 치유의 숲에 대한 산림청의 투자사업이 우리나라 경제에 미치는 파급효과를 2011년 한국은행 산업연관표를 이용하여 분석하였다. 고려된 투자사업은 20개의 치유의 숲 조성사업, 3개 치유의 숲 운영사업 및 국립백두대간 산림치유단지 조성사업인데, 이 사업들의 투자 및 운영으로 2010년부터 2017년 동안 약 6,982억 원의 생산유발효과, 4,556억 원의 부가가치 유발효과, 그리고 8,176명의 일자리 창출효과가 있는 것으로 추정되었다.
