The purpose of this study is to conduct an empirical analysis on the effect of aid proliferation on government spending on health by the recipient nations using panel data and acquire information on the direction of future ODA operations. In this study, calculated excessive foreign aid index with regard to the health sector of Sub-Sahara African nations and conducted an empirical analysis on the effect of aid fragmentation on government spending on health sector. The result of the analysis disclosed that aid fragmentation significantly reduced government spending on health. It is anticipated that such trend came from the mutual pursuit of profit between the attribute (the needs of the donor nation) of ODA projects after new businesses and the governments of recipient nations that want ODA funding. Because competitive and excessive supports in ODA projects induce distortion in the government budget operation of the recipient nations and thereby trigger disutility in ODA projects, Based on the result of the analysis, We proposed to incorporate a more comprehensive deliberation with regard to the capacity of the recipient nations as well as a need for the role of mediating body such as DAC.

공적개발원조(Official Development Assistance; 이하 ODA)는 세계 평화와 인류 공영에 이바지하기 위하여 개발도상국 또는 국제기구에 공여하는 증여(Grant) 및 양허적 성격의 차관(Concession Loan)으로(한국환경산업기술원, 2013), 당해 사업의 추진방식은 크게 양자간 원조와 다자간 원조 방식으로 구분된다. 양자간 원조는 공여국으로부터 수원국으로 원조자원이 직접 전달되는 방식인 반면, 다자간 원조방식은 IMF, ADB, IBRD, WB, EBRD, IDA 등 국제개발은행(MDB, Multilateral Development Bank) 및 UN 등에 출자 또는 출연됨으로써 간접적으로 원조자원이 전달되는 방식이다(오지택, 2012). 그리고 양자간 원조방식은 프로젝트 참여 국가를 제한하느냐, 제한하지 않느냐에 따라 구속성 원조(tied)와 비구속성(un-tied) 방식으로 구분된다. 그런데 이러한 양자간 ODA 원조 방식에 변화의 바람이 일고 있다. 국제 사회에서는 ODA 원조의 효과성 제고라는 명분하에 공여국들에게 원조방식의 비-구속성 원조를 촉구, 그 규모가 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 즉 ODA 비구속성 원조를 중심으로 한 또 하나의 시장이 성장하고 있는 것이다. 이에 본 논고에서는 ODA, 특히 물 관련 ODA 자금의 미래 성장 가능성을 살펴보고, 나아가 시장 분포, 프로젝트 특성 등을 살펴보고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to find out the way to improve the funding system of Korean animation, which will lead the establishment of virtuous circle of Korean animation industry. The funding structure of Korean animations in the period of 2005-2009 is analyzed to find out that the funding surveyed to find out that the domestic funding source for Korean animation has reached its limitation. Without any active involvement of public fund, this will result in the shrink of Korean animation industry with heavy reliance on foreign capital and limited quality of Korean animation. This is not only a serious problem of Korean animation industry, but also the problem of Korean cultural identity and variety because it is related with the diminish and degradation of Korean children and family content. Meanwhile, in France and Canada, which are the major co-production partners of Korean animation, the animation production is being activated by the full support of government fund system, because the animation is regarded as the important genre which plays a critical public role in establishing the cultural identity and variety of such countries. Improvement of Korean animation funding system is not pursued by more injection of public fund into the industry. It should be designed to facilitate the investment from the private sector by improving the profitability of Korean animation. This goal can be achieved by public fund with annual budget of 25 billion Korean Won supporting the distribution and production of Korean animation. Discussion should be needed for securing the funding resources such as establishment of new animation fund or utilization of existing fund.

After global financial crisis, the ratio of household debt to GDP was decreasing in other advanced countries such as the U.S., and the U.K. and so on. But, in Korea, household debt (of which residential mortgage loan account for a large part) ratio is still increasing. This paper focuses on the scale and characteristics of households in negative housing equity (those are called House-poors in Korea), and also the socio-economic backgrounds of the formation process. In financial perspective, the problem of negative housing equity depends on financial debt repayment capability. We used DSR (Debt Service Ratio) and LTA (Loan to Asset ratio) as financial indicators to evaluate the debt repayment capability. The critical value of DSR is assumed as 40%, and LTA 100%. The socio-economic backgrounds of the House-poors are as follows : increasing households debt dependency, over lending competition of financial institutions and unreasonable loan in household economy, instability of real estate market, week regulation on mortgage loan. Finally, this paper suggests some implications about the range and the target of public intervention.

Korea and USA reach an agreement with FTA. Korea's National Assembly will be to ratify the FTA. Korean agriculture was insufficiently competitive. FTA will be inflicted severe losses to Korean agriculture.

While Science tries to be far from Society, it actually does yearn for the trust from Society, on the other side. Its efforts getting back the trust has been witnessed with its fast evolution, consistent distrust from Society and Scientists' accountability with investment of public fund. Furthermore, many scholars have argued that there is the need to integrate science and society. In this regards, this paper explores how to integrate both spheres by participatory evaluation. To identify how the participatory evaluation works and should be, three main issues are mentioned. One is about evaluation methods; Objective-oriented and Behaviour aspects. Second is about prerequisite factors; sharing scientific language and changed recognition between civil society and scientists. Third is about challenge to be tackled; epistemological gap among evaluators and complex index. Under these issues, this paper sets out that the participatory evaluation should adopt the appropriate evaluation methodology. Last but not least, self-recognition and motivation by evaluators themselves are important factors, along with societal system which can take participatory evaluation.

The pilot GOBT program was carried out from November 17th - December 17th 2021 at KIMFT; self-isolation for 10 days, Basic Safety Training(BST) for 5 days and 2 weeks of on-board training(OBT) were conducted during the period. Total 20 cadets from 5 different Countries were participated under the financial support of IMO ITCP and Korean ODA program. The program aims to provide capacity-building courses focusing on on-board training and assisting future maritime officers in meeting the minimum standard of seagoing experience in accordance with the STCW Convention. In the meantime, the program itself can serve as a platform to share best practices of how the training including the curriculum can be organized on specialized training vessels. The questionnaire survey was carried out to evaluate the GOBT program, and the overall average score was 96.4 points which seems that the cadets were very satisfied with the Global On-Board Training program provided by KIMFT in 2021.
