  • Recent trends of global food production, processing, distribution and preparation under free trade circumstance are creating an increase in common' concerns about food safety. It is important that farmers improve agricultural products/food safety for satisfying consumer needs and health. Cognizant to the situation, this study was conducted to analyze how the Producers gather information, and determine their awareness about agricultural Products safety using a safety Questionnaire. The Questionnaire was given to 500 farmers who cultivate rice, fruit trees, vegetables, and other crops from September through October 2005. More than half of the producers felt concerns about the agricultural products/foods safety. Uneasiness of the producers was higher amongst those who were younger and earned a higher income. Pesticides and zoonosis (BSE AI, etc.) emerged as the main risk factors causing concerns among the greatest number of producers. Producers had a positive opinion of the effects and perception of food safety, but no opinion of the activity of government. The producers showed a high level of understanding of the Country of Origin Labeling System (88.2%), the quality certification system of agricultural and livestock products (71.9%), and the raising system of environment-friendly agriculture (72.7%). However, their level of understanding of the GAP (59.3%) and the Traceability System (22.8%) was still low. To effectively implement these policies, awareness of producers who are the beneficiaries of the above policies has to be enhanced. Therefore, the safety information should be provided at a more appropriate time and should be easier to understand.

  • Purpose: This review aims to provide an understanding of the UN recommendations regarding school disaster safety in the context of Korea's school safety system. Methods: Relevant literature and reports on the UN's school disaster safety were investigated. On basis of the analysis, this review closely examined how the UN school disaster safety had been developed and what it had proposed. Results: Major findings from this review regarding the UN school disaster safety were to: 1) utilize "all-hazards approach"; 2) focus on "community-based approach"; 3) explore "education for sustainable development"; and 4) emphasize "informal disaster safety education." Conclusion: This review on the UN school disaster safety may give a critical implication to Korea's school safety education.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of an education program promoting attitude, knowledge, and practice of safety for teachers in child care centers. Method: This education was provided at one public health center in Kyunggi Province. One group pretest-post test design was used, and knowledge on safety and emergency care, practice of safety, health belief and self confidence on safety practice were assessed from 74 teachers. Theoretical framework for this program was Pender's health promotion model. Result: After two hours group education session on safety management, knowledge on safety and emergency care was significantly increased and perception on the main cause of injuries was significantly changed. Practice on safety was significantly related to the knowledge, health belief and confidence on safety, and social support. Conclusion: The education program for teachers in child care centers regarding the child safety and emergency care was effective in promoting knowledge and perception on the main cause of injuries of infants.

  • The ritual for community is a group ritual performed by the regional community of a village for the safety of the residents and abundant harvests. However, many ritual places have been destroyed by the anti-superstition movement, New Community Movement (Saemaul Movement), industrialization and urbanization since the 1960s. Under the circumstances, this study researched the status of use of the ritual place in Beommul-dong in Daegu where the ritual was revived in 2004 after having been suspended since the end of the 1980s due to urbanization. The revival of the ritual for community in Beommul-dong in Daegu, which had been maintained by the village people alone, is the prime example of the vitalization of local community as the recreation of local community, since the ritual has been transformed into a kind of festival involved with and financed by the local government. The study on analyzing the usage pattern of the ritual place may provide useful sources to come up with the modernized functions of the ritual place as a community place, where the heads of the ward office and cultural center, lawmakers and most of the residents perform the ritual, share foods and tread on the God of the Earth across the village at 11:30 in the morning on every January 16 of the lunar calendar.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to gauge the economic evaluation and sample distribution of conserving the Belum Royal State Park (BRSP) in Perak, Malaysia and to identify factors influencing its use by the community. This study aims to examine community perception on the conservation of the Belum Royal State Park (BRSP) and maximum community's willingness to pay for park entry permits fees. Research design, data and methodology: A questionnaire survey was conducted involving a total of 280 respondents. The study adopted the Dichotomous Choice Contingent Valuation Approach (DC-CVM) and the Logistic Model, to estimate the maximum community's willingness to pay for park entry permits fees. Results: The results established that the factors of respondent's occupation, income, ecotourism influence on the BRSP and maximum entry price, significantly influenced visitors' decision on community's willingness to pay. The average community's willingness to pay was RM9.68 per person. Conclusions: In conclusion, surveillance and patrols in protected areas should be expanded. The extra expense for ensuring safety can be offset through income from ecotourism that should also benefit the local community on economic evaluation and equal distribution on the BRSP.

  • 본 연구는 커뮤니티 매핑 과정에 스마트기기로 수집된 공간분석 정보를 제공하고 공유하여 시민들이 자신의 의견을 객관적으로 검토할 수 있는 기회를 제공하고, 이러한 공간정보의 제공이 시민들의 의사결정과 인식에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보았다. 연구를 위해 부산광역시 중구 영주동을 사례지역으로 선정하여 이 지역의 초등학생 보행안전 문제를 개선하기 위한 위험지역 선정을 목표로 커뮤니티 매핑을 진행하였다. 시민들은 자신들의 경험과 인식을 기반으로 1차 위험지도를 작성하고, 드론과 센서 등 스마트기기로 수집된 보행안전시설과 유동인구 공간정보를 공유한 후 2차 위험지도를 작성하였다. 1차, 2차 위험지도를 비교한 결과 많은 구간에서 순위 변동이 발생했으며, 참여주민들이 인식했던 것보다 객관적으로 측정된 유동인구가 많고 안전시설이 미비한 지역의 순위가 상향되었다. 또한, 주민 설문조사 결과를 살펴보면, 커뮤니티 매핑과정에서 스마트기기 기반 공간분석 정보의 제공은 시민들의 지역문제 인식에 도움을 주었을 뿐 아니라 본인들이 제출한 의견이 정책에 반영될 수 있을 것이라는 기대감도 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 참여자들이 직접 만들어 낸 결과물에 대한 신뢰도 향상되어 주민 스스로 자신감과 믿음을 갖는데 도움을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Nitrogen removal, nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) emission and microbial community in sequencing batch and continuous-flow intermittent aeration processes were investigated. Two sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) and two continuous-flow multiple anoxic and aerobic reactors (CMRs) were operated under high dissolved oxygen (DO) (SBR-H and CMR-H) and low DO (SBR-L and CMR-L) concentrations, respectively. Nitrogen removal was enhanced under CMR and low DO conditions (CMR-L). The highest total inorganic nitrogen removal efficiency of 91.5% was achieved. Higher nitrifying and denitrifying activities in SBRs were observed. CMRs possessed higher $N_2O$ emission factors during nitrification in the presence of organics, with the highest $N_2O$ emission factor of 60.7% in CMR-L. SBR and low DO conditions promoted $N_2O$ emission during denitrification. CMR systems had higher microbial diversity. Candidatus Accumulibacter, Nitrosomonadaceae and putative denitrifiers ($N_2O$ reducers and producers) were responsible for $N_2O$ emission.
