The objectives of this study were to examine how social networks of old retirees impact on their retirement satisfaction, and through this, to suggest ways of improving their retirement satisfaction. Data used in this study were from 2006 KLoSA(Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing), which were collected from 1,009 elderly people aged 65 and over who resided metropolis and smaller medium cities and answered regarding their retirement satisfaction. Data were analyzed by Binary Logistic Regression method. As a result, the frequency of contact with children, the number of participation in their social activities, and the satisfaction of relationship with children were the significant variables to predict retirement satisfaction. In addition, other variables such as gender, subjective health status, type of retirement, and duration of past retirement have been found as significant variables to explain retirement satisfaction. Implications for designing effective retirement plan and service systems have been discussed.

In the reality that the seriousness and concern about the youth problem is increasing, this study focuses on the vision plan project supporting the NEET youth in the social welfare field. Therefore, this study analyzed how the social workers recognized the NEET problem before participating in the project, what difficulties they experienced in the process of the project, and how they coped with these difficulties. The results of the study are as follows. Social workers were saddened by the seriousness of the youth problem before their participation, but they recognized that there was no way to solve it and many social workers were not fully aware of the youth or NEET issues. In this context, in the course of running a project with NEET youth, social workers experienced difficulties due to the nature of the NEET youth, difficulty in forming a relationship with NEET youth, and difficulties for young people not to spend time in the program. And social workers also faced difficulties due to the lack of know-how in the project, difficulties in operating the center alone, and difficulty in achieving employment goals. In the process of coping with these difficulties, social workers have actively sought, persuaded and supported the NEET youths to participate in the project, adapted the time, place and method to the youth, and removed the stigmatization element in the project. They also worked closely with local residents, local institutions and municipalities, formed networks, and changed the viewpoint of providing work experience rather than getting young people, but seeing long-term outcome. As a result, social workers have experienced not only individual change but also social welfare organization, field, community and local institutional change. Based on these results, this study suggested that the social welfare practice field should provide various activities in the process of supporting the youth gap year policy. In addition, this study suggests that the social workers play a role in connecting various actors rather than suppliers when working with young people, and that the social welfare field should expand the scope of project to include youth.

Based on the Everyday Information Seeking Behavior Theory, this study investigates information activities and library experience of 66 elderly or people with disabilities in Autonomous District A. In addition, this study analyzes contextual circumstances of daily information activities through in-depth interviews with a subset of 11 people. Although community welfare centers provide basic welfare, the elderly and people with disabilities seek to learn and socialize in cultural welfare centers, particularly in libraries. This study shows that libraries can fulfill their top three of Maslow's hierarchy of needs: Self-Actualization, Esteem, and Love and Belonging. Specifically, digital literacy education has been identified to be highly demanded. They seek to distinguish correct online information and to socialize using digital technologies in this contactless society. This study proposes a detailed plan for public libraries to offer cultural and information welfare in order to reduce the information gap within the local communities.

To meet the challenge of new type of innovation activities requires us to understand the social context of innovation and the potential needs of innovation users and, based on this, to co-construct technology and society simultaneously. Effective 'demand articulation' activities such as the understanding and utilization of user experiences and socio-technical planning are prerequisites for carrying out post-catch up innovations shaping new trajectories and contributing to solving social problems. Living Lab has recently been emerging particularly in Europe as an 'user-driven innovation model', in which users are active participants in innovation activities. The purpose of this study is to contribute to a theoretical discussion of Living Lab as an user-driven innovation model, to make a brief review of cases of Living Lab and to explore Living Lab's applicability in the Korean context. Living Lab is an open innovation model, in which end suers actively participate in innovation processes in a particular geographical space or region and would be able to solve specific problems of that space or region. In that sense, Living Lab would be able to strengthen the problem-solving capabilities of local communities and to become a pioneer in inducing and realizing a new socio-technical system. Furthermore, Living Lab could become an innovative policy tool reflecting recent major changes in innovation policy paradigms such as post-catch up innovation, demand-oriented innovation, regional innovation, societal innovation, innovation eco-system and socio-technical system transition, and thus make a contribution to exploring a new way of bringing about changes in the Korean society.

기후변화, 도시화 등 다양한 요인에 의하여 도시 침수 위험성은 더욱 커지고 있다. 높은 인구밀도와 더불어 학교, 병원 등 인프라가 집중된 도시지역의 경우 대규모 홍수가 발생할 경우 수많은 인적, 경제적 피해로 이어지게 된다. 도시지역 내 침수 위험성을 최소화하기 위해 정확하고 빠른 도시침수모형의 개발과 더불어 사전에 이를 최소화하기 위한 방재교육의 중요성이 더욱 강조되고 있다. 가상현실 (Virtual Reality, VR) 기술은 높은 몰입감을 통해 사용자의 자발적 참여를 유도하여 기존의 교육매체 대비 높은 교육적 효과를 보이고 있다. 특히 침수 등 인명피해 위험성을 내재한 재해에의 VR 적용은 위험성을 동반하지 않아 더욱 효과적이다. 종래의 VR 기반 침수 방재교육은 침수의 동수역학적 거동과 대상 지역의 지리적 특성을 적절히 고려하지 못하여 방재교육에는 효과적이나 방재시스템으로의 활용엔 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 몰입형 파랑해석모형인 Celeris Base를 토대로 몰입형 도시 침수 수치모형을 개발하였다. Unity3D로 개발된 Celeris Base는 가상현실 장비인 HMD (Head Mounted Display) 기술을 이용하여 실시간 모의결과를 360도 가상현실 공간 내에 가시화할 수 있다. 도시지역 내 강우에 의한 침수를 모의하기 위해 연속방정식 내에 강우, 침투 항을 고려하였다. 침투모형으로는 도시지역 내 침수모의에 일반적으로 사용되는 NRCS-CN 방법을 사용하였다. 본 연구는 개발모형을 이용하여 2022년 8월 발생한 집중호우에 의한 강남역 일대 침수 사상을 수치적으로 재현하고, 이를 가상현실 모의환경 내에 가시화하였다. 모의결과는 집중호우 발생 시 지형적 특성에 따라 강남역과 역삼역 인근에서 집중적으로 침수피해가 발생하였음을 확인하였다.
