The current society is in the VUCA era, where various risks produced by humans are spread along with the development of science and technology. There is a need to increase the level of risk literacy of citizens to strengthen their daily preparedness to respond to these risks. For this on, it is necessary to reconsider the role of science education so that risks can be perceived and responded to scientifically and objectively. Accordingly, in order to investigate the role of science education in a risk society, this study reviewed the history of risk perception and response related to science and analyzed its characteristics. In this process, perception and response to risks arising from blood pressure were analyzed in three contexts (historical context, curriculum context, textbook context). For historical context, journals registered in SCIE were selected as research subjects among journals where research related to the history of knowledge of the heart and cardiovascular system was conducted. Papers with the keywords 'hypertension' and 'history' were selected from the journals, and changes in perception and responses related to blood pressure were compared and analyzed by period. The curriculum context is analyzed from the 1st national curriculum to the 2022 revised curriculum, and content elements and achievement standard related to blood pressure were compared and analyzed. It was confirmed that risks arising from blood pressure were not included from the 1st to the 6th national curriculum, and that risks arising from blood pressure were included from the 7th national curriculum (excluding the 2009 revised curriculum). For the textbook context, the 7th national curriculum BiologyⅠ, the 2015 revised curriculum Life ScienceⅠ, and Health were selected, and through text mining, keywords that representing curriculums and textbooks were selected, and the presentation of risk perception and response was analyzed based on the keywords. And by analyzing the figures and tables presented in the textbook, the characteristics of risk perception and risk response were derived. This study is meaningful in that it was able to confirm the role of risk perception and response in science education.

Although e-Finance has become more and more prevalent in everyday life, with the development of information technology, further development of e-Finance and commercial transactions has been limited. Therefore it is important for financial institutions to be aware of the significance of e-Finance risk and take appropriate actions. And an effective risk management function relies on a well-defined organization structure to eliminate gaps and minimize overlaps in risk management duties, responsibilities, and authorities. It defines and assigns risk management responsibilities, authorities, and accountabilities to appropriate personnel. The adequate organization of the risk management function is very important in the success of risk management.

As the type of Hazardous and Noxious Substances(HNS) becomes various and the transport volume of HNS increases, HNS spill incidents occur frequently on land and the sea. In view of various damages to human lives and properties by HNS spills, it is necessary to educate and train professional personnel in preparation for and response to potential HNS spills. This study shows the current state of response systems and education courses against HNS spill incidents on land and the sea to compare those with each other between land and sea in Korea. Incident command system on land are basically similar to that at sea, but leading authority which is responsible for combating HNS spills at sea is changeable depending on the location of HNS spill, as it were, Korea Coast Guard(KCG) is responsible for urgent response to HNS spill at sea, while municipalities are responsible for the response to HNS drifted ashore. Education courses for HNS responders on land are established at National Fire Service Academy(NFSA), National Institute of Chemical Safety(NICS), etc., and are diverse. Education and training courses for HNS responder at sea are established at Korea Coast Guard Academy(KCGA) and Marine Environment Research & Training Institute(MERTI), and are comparatively simple. Education courses for dangerous cargo handlers who work in port where land is linked to the sea are established at Korea Maritime Dangerous Goods Inspection & Research Institute(KOMDI), Korea Port Training Institute(KPTI) and Korea Institute of Maritime and Fisheries Technology(KIMFT). Through the comparison of education courses for HNS responders between land and sea, some recommendations such as extension of education targets, division of an existing integrated HNS course into two courses composed of operational level and manager level with respective refresh course, on-line cyber course and joint inter-educational institute course in cooperation with other relevant institutes are proposed for the improvement in education courses of KCG and KOEM(Korea Marine Environment Management Corporation) to educate and train professionals for combating HNS spills at sea in Korea.

With the recent rising project complexities and competitive environments in the construction projects, a risk management is recognized as more important management tool than the others. However, as most risk management techniques applied to the construction projects are centered around their initial phases and risk analyses, they are not developed into general project management technique such as time management, cost management and quality management, etc., that are usually applied in the process of construction. Thus, this paper proposes a response process to construction project risks based on the risk threshold and its calculation methodology applying a concept of VaR to establish risk management as general management technique in the construction projects.

본 연구는 공적개발원조 사업 중 하나로 개발도상국의 실무자 및 정책결정자의 물 관련 재해위험경감 역량 강화를 위한 교육 훈련 프로그램을 검토하고 개발하는데 목적이 있다. 특히, 물 관련 재해에 대한 구조적, 비구조적 대응방식을 균형있게 논의하고 지방정부 및 관련기관과의 협력, 지역사회기반의 재해경감정책 등 새로운 대응방식관련 교육 프로그램을 검토한다. 2000년-2006년 기간 Emergency Disasters Database (EM-DAT)에 기록된 전 세계 2,163건의 물 관련 재해는 총 29만 명 이상의 인명피해와 4,220억 달러의 재산피해를 초래하였다. 이런 재해는 개발도상국이나 선진국 모두에게 치명적이지만 특히 재해대응역량이 부족한 개발도상국에 막대한 손실을 초래하여 국가개발과 존망에 큰 위협이 되고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 대부분의 개발도상국은 재해관리를 간과하여 빈곤의 악순환에서 벗어나지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 2005년 효고행동강령(Hyogo Framework for Action: HFA)의 기본원칙, 2011년 중간평가 검토, 2015년 이후 제시될 새로운 재해위험경감 정책의 틀 속에서 재해위험경감 교육 프로그램을 연구하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 개발도상국 공무원을 대상으로 공적개발원조 프로그램을 운영한 천안의 중앙민방위방재교육원과 일본 고베시의 JICA 등을 방문하여 물 관련 재해 대응의 실질적 개선방향을 모색하였다. 물 관련 재해대응을 위한 교육 프로그램 대상은 실무자와 정책결정자로 설정하고 예방/대비/대응/복구의 유형에 따른 교육과정을 검토한다. 재해 대응 역량강화를 위하여 댐이나 제방 등 홍수위험관리기술과 같은 구조적 방식뿐만 아니라 근본적인 재해위험경감을 위한 홍수위험도 분석과 관리, 도시홍수위험경감계획, 관련 법규제정, 지역홍수위험경감과 민관협력 등과 같은 비구조적 방식에 대한 교육도 포함한다. 이런 측면에서 한국의 경제발전 경험과 물 관련 재해관리 경험을 정책, 사업, 사례와 연관시켜 교육을 진행하고 장단점 비교를 통하여 개발도상국 현지에 적합한 모델을 모색한다. 또한 재해발생시 피해규모를 최소화하게 하는 초동대응을 위해서 행정뿐만 아니라 지역, 시민, 기업 등 다양한 이해 당사자와 주체가 참여하는 종합대책교육을 포함한다. 사회경제발전의 지속을 위해서는 재해에 대한 관리가 매우 중요하다. 특히 인간의 삶에 너무도 익숙하지만 홍수, 가뭄 등으로 치명적인 피해를 야기하는 물 관련 재해에 대응하기 위해서는 물 관리와 관련 재해에 대한 전반적인 이해가 필수적이다. 따라서 한국의 물 관리 경험에 기초한 재해위험경감 교육과 훈련은 개발도상국의 효과적인 재해관리를 가능하게 할 것이다.

Environmental risk is one of major risks in contemporary society which is often conceptualized in terms of 'risk society'. The crisis which retains such environmental risk can be characterized by 'technical hazards', rather than natural hazards in traditional societies, because of potentiality of technical control over its generation and managing process. Environmental crisis tends to be recurred due to certain limitations of response of both government and civil society. Moreover, it can be argued that generation of environmental crisis and limitations of its managing process are inherent in problematic structures in contemporary society, especially in its 4 basic elements and their characters; that is, capitalist market economy which promotes increasing profits and decreasing cost; bureaucratic representative politics which has brought about concentration of power and evasion of responsibility, instrumental science and technology which leads to blind belief on scientific knowledge and its uncertainty; and finally individualistic way of life with exclusive and passive response to crisis. This paper aims to consider the generation and managing process of environmental crisis in terms of these 4 basic elements, with comparative studies on empirical cases of the water crisis by Phenol pollution in Taegu in 1991 and the water crisis by parasites contamination in Sydney in 1998.

The construction project is largely exposed to much more risk events over the project life cycle due to its complexity and size than the other industries. Therefore, the construction risk management process to identify and response the risk events is not only performing acutely but also proceeding systematically. The risk identification phase in the risk management process is to identify various risk events and define its characteristics. At this phase, the risk identification system is very useful tool to identify every possible risk events in the project. This study shows some problems of the existing risk identification system and proposes the modified risk identification system based on the project phases and the contract bodies, and also suggests partial but more enough detailed risk checklists to be implemented in the actual risk identification phase than any other existing risk breakdown systems to be examined at this study.
