Recently, with achieved US$ 500 Billion international cumulative construction order, the Korean government presented overseas construction industry visions for international orders of US$ 100 Billion and entering the top five countries in global construction market. Also, Korean companies are developing strategies for expansion of international markets. However, ODA loan projects are low risk for the Korea Construction companies trying to advance their overseas business. This study provides data-based advice on securing competence for Korean construction companies entering the global market through the ODA loan projects. To analysis construction firm's competitiveness for ODA loan project, FGD was utilized and BSA model was applied to the valuable analysis. Competencies highly assessed were construction quality control, relationship building through high-level diplomatic activities, and project management. Competencies requiring urgent improvement were handling risks of local countries, financing projects, and developing know-how within participating companies.

Firstly, our Technical and Vocational Education and Training(TVET) ODA currently uses 70% of its budget on short-term assistance project works without much consideration for continuity from one project to another. Secondly, TVET ODA budget is much too concentrated on hardware support, lowering impact compared to the amount invested. Lastly, there is a lack of research on the needs of recipient nation which leads to lowering effectiveness of TVET ODA. This Study analyzed the characteristics of Korea's TVET ODA through the statistical data analysis of ODA. This study's main focus is to recommend methods for Korean colleges to overcome tendencies and limitations of TVET within Korea's ODA. Colleges have advantages in training students to fit needs of the market and companies based on decades of experience colleges have on academic-industrial collaboration. Colleges can also transfer qualification verification systems to fit the recipient country and dispatch TVET related personnel to strengthen software support. Additionally, the post project evaluation and post job placement management capabilities of colleges can be actively used for post management of TVET projects. I hope that through this study, ways to increase participation of colleges in TVET ODA can be discussed in more variety.

Various opinions and discussions have been actively in progress which are connected with cultural heritage since 'Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs' was announced by UN Sustainable Development Summit 2015 as Post-2015 Development Agenda. Apart from SDGs, conservation of cultural heritage itself stands on the basis of sustainability that originality, characteristic, diversity of cultural heritage should be permanently preserved. From that point of view, it is necessary to understand practical ODA for cultural heritage, far from theoretical approaches and policies. This paper is intended to look into the domestic and overseas situation related to ODA of Asian cultural heritage and the mentioned problems, future plans and challenges. First, the background and concepts about ODA were described and then ODA projects which have been carried out by Japan and China as typical ODA countries for Southeast Asia were introduced. ODA of cultural heritage in Korea has relatively recently started for restoration work for historic sites of Laos and Cambodia and its scale and performance do not come to much yet. Therefore, to develop ODA of cultural heritage, there are suggestions as in the followings. First, it is necessary to have a long-term master plan of ODA projects for sustainability of cultural heritage. Second, based on the view from the long-term perspective, the selection and focus for ODA partner countries should be considered, avoiding short-term projects aiming at a number of countries. Not widespread existing projects by other countries, but the model of Korean ODA for cultural heritage only Korea can conduct should be prepared. The next thing is connection with sustainability, and ultimately the conservation of cultural heritage should result in benefit to the natives by giving an impetus to economy as well as fostering tourism of local areas. To accomplish that connection, educational training and building capacity are suggested as the most suitable alternatives. Cultural heritage of each country reflects its indigenous originality and characteristics, therefore, the restoration work should be conducted by people in each country as the best way. From this point of view, ACPCS held by National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage will take a role of a specialized training program in Korean way. Lastly, establishment of a control tower for ODA in Korea is necessary. JCIC(Japan Consortium for International Cooperation in Cultural Heritage), which was set up in Japan for sharing information, establishment of cooperation system and prevention of overlapped projects will be an example we can take into consideration.

우리나라는 2000년 수원국에서 공여국으로 전환 후 ODA 규모를 지속적으로 확대해 왔으며, 2018년 ODA 예산 규모는 약 3조 482억원으로 OECD DAC(개발원조위원회) 회원국 중 총액 기준 15위 규모로 성장했다. 우리나라의 국민총소득(GNI) 대비 ODA 비율은 0.15%(2018년)로, 우리나라는 2030년까지 GNI 대비 0.3%까지 ODA 예산규모를 확대하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 우리나라 하천·수자원 관련 국제개발협력 사업은 2007년 '라오스 메콩강변 종합관리사업'을 시작으로 현재까지 약 40건의 사업이 시행되었다. 시행된 사업중 90%(36건)가 중점협력국가(2016-2020)와의 협력사업이었으며, 24개의 중점협력국 중 물관리가 중점협력분야로 들어가 있는 국가는 17개국이나 그 중 8개국에서만 국제개발협력사업이 시행되었다. 라오스, 인도네시아, 캄보디아가 각각 6건, 필리핀 5건 등으로 일부 국가에 편중되어 국제개발협력사업이 추진되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 그동안 하천·수자원 분야 국제협력사업이 전담기관 없이, 일부 공공기관이나 민간기업의 각각의 네트워크와 노하우에 의존하여 발굴되고 있기 때문이다. 사업을 추진하는 공공기관 및 민간기업이 각자의 네트워크를 활용하여 사업의 발굴부터 시행까지 추진함에 따라 사업추진에 따른 네트워크가 지속되지 않고 단발성으로 끝나는 경우가 많고, 해당 국가에 우선적으로 필요한 사업이 선정되는 것이 아닌 사업을 추진하는 기관의 특성에 맞게 발굴된 사업이 선정되어 왔다. 국제개발협력사업 발굴에서 가장 핵심적인 부분은 상대국가와의 네트워크를 구축하고, 지속적인 교류를 통해 해당 국가에 어떤 하천 및 수자원 관련 문제가 있는지 파악해서 우선적으로 필요한 사업을 제안하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 사업제안서를 수원국이 자체적으로 작성할 수 있는 역량이 부족한 경우가 대부분이기 때문에 우리나라의 사업을 추진하는 기관이 사업제안서를 작성해주고 수원국에서 검토하는 방식으로 사업제안서를 작성해야하는 한계점이 있다. 따라서, 하천분야 국제 협력 네트워크의 지속적인 관리 및 정기적인 하천사업 수요조사 및 구원국의 사업제안서 작성 지원을 위한 전담기관을 선정하여 국제협력사업 추진을 위탁함으로써 네트워크 및 노하우의 누적을 통한 해외사업의 발굴 및 지속가능성을 강화하는 것이 필요하다고 생각된다.

For analyzing the performance determinants of ODA projects in a technical and vocational education and training, this research analyzed the performance determinants of effectiveness representing the direct benefit and impact representing the long-term development effects of ODA project using FsQCA. As a result, the effectiveness of ODA project is achieved when relevance, sustainability and impact are high, or relevance, impact and efficiency are high. The impact of ODA project is achieved when relevance, sustainability and effectiveness are high, or relevance, effectiveness and efficiency are high. Two solutions for achieving effectiveness and two solutions for achieving impact show equifinality. The core factors for achieving effectiveness are relevance and impact, and the core factors for achieving impact are relevance and effectiveness. Also sustainability and efficiency are substitutability. A single causal variable can not have an effect on the ODA performance, but combined more than three causal variables can have an effect on the ODA performance. Therefore this research verified that collectives of causal variables rather than single causal variable should be considered to achieve the performance of ODA project in technical and vocational education and training.

This study was an attempt to review of tuberculosis control projects supported by(Official Development Assistance: ODA) and to describe the meaning of the influencing factors. Also, the study aims to determine the exit strategies of donor countries to sustain these projects. The research was conducted reviewing of tuberculosis-related reports and documents, and understood the tuberculosis control projects in Philippines. There were 14 people who participated, and explored the sustainability limits using in-depth interviewing and observation method. Data from interviews and participant observations were analyzed to the phenomenological method by Colaizzi(1978). A total 4 categories were grouped on the final. The finding shows factors that affect the sustainability of these tuberculosis control projects within Philippines supported by ODA have been divided and explained as follow; "limit of workforce", "limit of finance", "limit of facility and equipment", "limit of participation". To sustain these projects, the following alternative plans have been exemplified; "strengthening professionalism", "strengthening education and public relations", "activated strategy for community involvement", "matching funds for financing". Furthermore, the study of integrated tuberculosis control projects will be needed.

This study presents improvement measures at the local government level by analyzing the step-by-step projects of Suwon City's Suwon Village Development Project, which is being carried out with public development assistance in the Kingdom of Cambodia. For this study, realistic research was conducted by visiting the site and interviewing the person in charge. The following conclusions are drawn. First, public development assistance projects for local governments in Korea should be carried out, with detailed programs to implement them under the central government's ODA policy. Second, provided a project is competitively carried out, and is not simply pork barreling or enhancing the external image of local governments, the project should be continued, and supplementary measures taken based on an evaluation system and the results of the project's performance. Third, ODAs in the economic and social development sectors-not sporadic aid among central government ministries and local governments-should be centered on the central government and KOICA while local governments are small. If development cooperation is achieved by focusing on the software sector, criticism that it wastes taxpayers' money is likely to decrease. This study suggests that local governments need to establish ODA plans and cooperate with the central government.

This Research Paper was based on practical method to examine a subjectivity of ODA experts' images. It was used Q-methodology to solve the research problems. I found 4 types of images out throughout the process totally. The perception patterns came out in the research were divided into 4 types in Q-methodology. The results is following ; Those are separated 4 types like Type 1(called operationally individual type), Type 2(arbitrary type), Type 3(mellow type), Type 4(onlooking type). These types consist of each elements to evaluate ODA experts from the people minds. Therefore, This study give us one way to take an assessment of ODA projects. The results reveal that korean ODA policy more has to depend on the scientific evaluation of the person participated in each projects. And the findings demonstrate good questions in comparing with trends of ODA distributors of international development cooperation such as OECD/DAC.
