Abstract

Whereas shipping and Ship-building industries of Korea have been under the direct influence of International Maritime Organization (IMO) conventions and resolutions that aim at maritime safety and the protection of marine environment, it is needed that a specialized institute for dealing with IMO Agenda be established by industry-academy-government collaboration. Accordingly, this study proposes the establishment of a specialized institute to manage the IMO Agenda. To this end, integrating the existing bodies and their functions into a specialized institute, namely, the International Maritime Cooperation Center, is suggested. This center, composed of 40 researchers and operated by the Korea Maritime Institute, could assume this role. This study proceeds by building an estimate of the operational cost of the institute and exploring practical ways to finance it through the private and public sectors, also considering revisions to the Maritime Safety Act to ensure continuous operation of the new institute.

해양안전 및 환경보호를 목적으로 하는 국제해사기구(IMO)의 결의서와 협약은 우리나라의 조선업과 해운업에 직접적인 영향을 끼쳐왔기 때문에 산 학 관 협업으로 IMO 의제를 다루기 위한 전문 기관을 설립할 필요가 있다. 이를 위해 기존의 관련 조직과 기능을 새로운 조직으로 통합함으로써 연구원 40명 규모의 '국제해사협력센터'를 설립하고 한국해양수산개발원에 위탁 운영하는 방안을 제시하였다. 조직 운영에 필요한 예산 규모를 산출하고 민간과 공공부문으로부터 재정확보를 위한 현실성 있는 방안 제시와 함께 조직의 영속성 확보를 위해 해사안전법 개정을 제안하였다.
