  • 오늘날 전세계적 양극화가 다양한 스케일에서 심화되고 있다. 가난한 개발도상국을 중심으로 나타나고 있는 빈곤과 불평등, 그리고 이로 인해 파생되는 기아, 질병, 환경파괴, 난민 등의 문제는 보다 복잡한 지리적 양상으로 전개되고 있다. 이런 문제는 특정 국가나 지역에 국한된 문제처럼 보이지만, 유럽 식민주의 이후의 지리적 상호연결성이 파생해 온 역사적 결과이다. 이런 측면에서 1960년대 이후 본격적으로 전개되어 온 국제개발협력은 빈곤과 불평등을 해결하는 데에 기여해 왔지만, 이런 과정에는 공적개발원조와 관련된 보다 복잡한 지정학적 이해관계가 얽혀 있다. 특히, 2015년에는 2000년에 시작된 새천년 개발목표(MDGs) 프로젝트가 종료되는 대신 2030년을 목표로 하는 지속가능개발목표(SDGs)가 새롭게 수립됨에 따라, 이를 달성하려고 하는 국제 사회의 노력과 전략은 더욱 복잡해질 것으로 예측된다. 지리적 측면에서 볼 때 SDGs는 훨씬 폭넓고 다양한 문제를 해결하려는 방향으로 설정되었지만 동시에 많은 한계와 난점도 갖고 있다.

  • 본 연구는 인간안보 개념의 분석적 엄격성과 실천적 유용성의 문제를 MDGs 사례를 통해서 살펴보고자 한다. 인간안보가 21세기적 안보과제들을 이해하는데 있어서 유용한 안보 개념 틀로 발전하기 위해서는 개념적 엄격성과 실천적 유용성을 더욱 높여야하는 과제를 안고 있다. 본 연구에서는 인간안보의 다양한 위협요인들 사이의 관계를 재정립하고 난 뒤, 빈곤을 인간안보의 근본적 위협으로 간주함으로써 인간안보의 인과적 가설의 단순화 및 개념적 엄격성을 추구하였다. 또한 인간안보의 실천적 유용성을 높이기 위해 유엔 MDGs의 효과적 달성을 위한 글로벌 거버넌스 창출 문제를 심층적으로 검토하였다. 인간안보를 위한 글로벌 거버넌스는 지구적인 정치적 대표성, 정책결정의 효율성, 민주성을 확보하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 지구적 정치적 대표성을 위해 새로운 최고의사결정기구로서 가칭 "개발을 위한 정상회의" 창설하고, 민주성 확보를 위해 국가/정부, 국제기구, NGO들 사이에 동반자적 협력관계가 구축하고, 정책결정의 효율을 위해서 국제기구들 사이의 통합적 협력체제를 구축하여 개발업무의 효과성을 제고하여야 한다고 주장하고 있다.

  • This study evaluated the effects of muscle and dietary treatments including CORN, dry distillers grains (DDGS), and modified distillers grains (MDGS) on fatty acid (FA) deposition in two novel value-added beef cuts (Petite Tender - M. teres major - TM, and Flat Iron - M. infraspinatus - INF). Crossbred steers were randomly assigned to one of three dietary treatments (CORN, 40% of DDGS with 8%-12% of moisture, and 40% of MDGS with 45%-55% of moisture - DM basis) and fed for 190 days. The TM muscle had higher concentrations of ω6 FAs and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) when compared to INF. Beef fed CORN showed greater C16:0 and lower C18:0 values when compared to beef fed distillers grains (DGS). Beef fed DDGS had higher concentrations of ω6 FAs when compared to MDGS. Different moisture levels only affected FAs containing 14, 16, and 17 carbons. Different muscles, diets, and moisture levels of DGS affected the deposition of FAs in the lean.

  • Development assistance plays an important role in contributing to the development process of Cambodia. The top bilateral donors, China, Japan, and Korea provide ODA to Cambodia in different characteristics and from different perspectives. This study tries to pull out some implications for Cambodia as recipient and for donors in order to achieve the development of Cambodia's economy-effectively by using the ODA. As a viewpoint, ODA structure emphasizes the intention of donors, either for their self-interest and benefit or for achieving MDGs. China's ODA to Cambodia seems to distort the ODA allocation by other donors with unconditional loans or loans with conditionality focusing only on infrastructure. Cambodia benefits from the better infrastructure, but it has to pay the price set by China, even for concessional loans. The driving interests of Japan and Korea are more influenced by their national policy goals and the expected perceptions of their voters. The aid projects should at least catch the attention of national media or win obvious and unbiased support from the suffering people in the recipient countries.

  • The United Nations' Millennium Development Goals (MDG) has become a goal to create a sustainable life. The MDGs' target was to be achieved in 2015, but it missed that date. The MDGs' target has turned into a Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be achieved by 2030 The SDGs require financial support from companies. Funds are one of the resources to implement the SDGs. Government and private companies need to cooperate in achieving the SDGs target. The company has a responsibility to implement corporate social responsibility. The company's corporate social responsibility is part of the implementation of sustainable development in the SDGs. One of the essential industries that have responsibility for SDGs is the financial industry. This study aims to examine the determinant of corporate social responsibility funds in financial institutions in ASEAN countries. This study uses panel data to test the determinant variables on CSF provision. This study uses 45 sustainable development reports from 2015-2019. The total number of banks in the sample came from three countries, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. This study concludes that firm size, profitability, efficiency, and the age of the CEO are variables that influence the size of corporate social responsibility funds.

  • Objectives : This study presents comparison results of the correlations between ODA grants and health indicators among 23 countries in Asia. Methods : Data from 2005~2013 were collected through the World Development Indicator (WDI) provided by the World Bank (WB). The health-related variables used in this study included the maternal mortality ratio, infant mortality rate under five, infant mortality rate, incidence of tuberculosis, and prevalence of AIDS. Results : Based on the results, there were positive correlations between ODA grants and health indicators, which means that the overall ODA grants would drop when the health indicators improved. As for differences in the health indicators by income groups among the countries, there were differences in the maternal mortality ratio, infant mortality rate under five, infant mortality rate, and overall ODA grants. The maternal mortality ratio, infant mortality rate under five, and infant mortality rate were lower in the order of upper middle, lower middle, and poorest income countries. Conclusions : The findings raise a need for the integrated and horizontal development of Goals 4, 5 and 6 of MDGs in the ODA projects of health sector in the future.

  • Official Delvelopment Assistance(ODA) in forestry sector has been implemented for about 60 years after the second world war. Forestry aid is getting important due to its role to play as a practical methodology of Millenium Development Goals(MDGs). Korea has conducted ODA in forestry in 22 developing countries since 2005. However its contents are mostly focused on environment conservation by plantation. In the other hands, the other donor countries try to eradicate poverty of people who are dependent on forestry, environment conservation and etc in MDGs by means of ODA in forestry. Swiss, Germany, Japan, UK, and the other donor counties found out without taking account of forest dependent people who are supposed to manage 22% of developing countries's forest, forestry aid could not be successful. The direction of Korean ODA in forestry need to change in order to meet the current movement of International ODA. For this, Korea should develop various contents of forestry aids like CF (Community Forestry) project which the donor countries with long history of forestry aids have implemented in many ways.

  • UNESCO is an international specialized agency based on the United Nations (UN) located in the Paris. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization abbreviated as UNESCO. The mission and goal of UNESCO are to maintain the peace and security throughout the globe by encouraging international collaborations through educational, scientific, and cultural heritage in order to increase respect for principals of justice, international rules of law, and international human rights. Recently, the UNESCO published a new set of 17 goals for the nation's sustainable society. The Organization ensures to actively participate in UN activities to improve harmony and planning within the United Nations system. The 2030 agenda is primarily about shifting the world on to a sustainable and most in-depth. Currently, UNESCO launched broad goals and objectives for the international community including the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Among these sustainable goals, climate change, water security is more significant. In this paper, we briefly reviewed the seventeen goals by UNESCO.

  • Little attempt has been made to empirically investigate the effects of childhood poverty on children's educational attainments and their everyday life in Bangladesh. Quality education is a prominent aspiration in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), but there are few studies of school improvement in relation to the educational achievement of disadvantaged children living in rural Bangladesh. This article offers a theoretical understanding of childhood poverty and educational exclusion, building on the empirical research carried out in two rural areas to explore the following questions: Why do so many socio-economically disadvantaged children tend to dropout from formal secondary school? and Why do some succeed? After exploring the challenges of childhood poverty and educational exclusion, it shows how the challenges could be mitigated through attention to the ecology of human development in the contexts of individual children. Complex ways in which efforts can be made to tackle the challenges of childhood poverty are influenced by ecological factors within the context of the study. Recommendations for policy and practice are offered based on the findings to improve formal secondary schooling for socio-economically disadvantaged children in Bangladesh.
