One group consisted of 38 residents of the Green Parking Zone in Nam-gu, Ulsan, and the other group consised 129 residents with no experience with the Green Parking Project. For analysis, the frequency and means were calculated, and t-test, analysis of variance, and chi-square test were performed. The results showed, first, that general residents tended to think that parking on the street in front of one's house is a divine right, while residents living the Green Parking Zone thought that the street is a public space. Second, general residents regarded fences as means of security to protect their private property, while people living in the Green Parking Zone tended to think of their yards as semi-private spaces and allowed access to neighbors. Third, general residents had concerns about maintenance and administration fees, noise and dust, security of houses, and privacy. However, residents of the Green Parking Zone evaluated those conditions positively. Fourth, people who were well-informed about the Green Parking Project had low anxiety about security and invasion of privacy, results from the project.

본 연구는 정보화마을사업의 주민참여 수준을 고려하여 향후 사업방향성에 부합하면서 주민참여의 확대 가능성을 찾아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 정보화마을사업의 추진 및 운영주체들을 대상으로 주민참여 수준을 기준으로 각 주체별 현재와 향후 중요성에 대한 인식을 조사하였다. 분석결과 '마을'의 중요성을 가장 크게 인식하는 것으로 나타났는데 이는 사업의 방향성에 부합하는 것으로 향후 사업의 안정적 운영 및 지속적 추진 가능성을 예측하는데 중요한 근거를 보여준다. 그러나 이에 못지않게 시군구, 시도, 행정자치부 등 정부단위의 역할 역시 중요하게 여기는 것으로 나타났는데 이는 주민참여 중심이라는 사업의 방향성과는 상이한 것으로 사업 추진 시 혼란과 갈등을 야기시킬 수 있는 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 구체적으로 추진 및 운영주체에 대한 역할 평가를 통해 향후 자율적이며 자립적인 마을로 발전시키기 위하여 어떻게 정보화마을사업의 방향성을 가져가야할지 시사점을 도출하여 제시하였다.

The Republic of Korea has made major strides in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) over the last five decades. After going through continuous efforts in e-Government and national informatization, Korea has become one of the global E-government leaders. Korea's E-government Development Index ranking assessed by the United Nations improved from 15th in 2001 to the top in 2010 and 2012 out of 192 countries worldwide, and its E-participation Index ranking was also ranked 1st in 2010& 2012. In addition, many of Korea's E-government practices until now have been introduced to the world as the best cases and received worldwide acknowledgement. The importance of official development aid/assistance (ODA) through informatization is especially gaining attention as Korea has joined the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) and its status has significantly improved within international organizations. The Korean government has selected countries that have high potential in trade, economic, and E-government cooperation or those that are selected as ODA priority countries by the international community and has carried out various activities including ICT consultation, ICT Cooperation Center operation, and ICT learning programs. With joining the OECD DAC, Korea's overseas aid projects are expected to increase and be carried out in a more systematic manner. Also in the area of informatization, the importance of not only the overseas aid 'in ICT' itself but also the overseas aid 'through ICT' is increasing along with the expanding scale for more efficient and influential support. The Korean government's comprehensive reach of international projects in the ICT arena, aims to foster the global partnership for development by sharing and expanding the benefits of ICTs. The Korean government recognizes its advances and has endeavored to share them with others through participation in international forums and hosting of workshops.

This study analyzes the effects of FDI on the global value chain (GVC) using participation and export value added using panel data from 2005 to 2016 for 63 countries. This study used the GLS method. Results are as follows: First, foreign direct investment had a positive impact on the global value chain (GVC) participation and export value added of non-OECD economies. Furthermore, tariff rates were more sensitive to non-OECD countries than OECD countries. In addition, logistics infrastructure had a negative impact on global value chain (GVC) participation and export value added, while developed countries, such as OECD countries, with good infrastructure, had a positive impact on non-OECD countries. Finally, research and development costs have been shown to play a very important role in non-OECD countries. This study found that various service sectors, such as research and development (R & D) as well as the general manufacturing industry, are expanding beyond two countries to form global value chains (GVC) in which several countries are connected from production to consumption.

본 연구는 지역보건의료계획 수립과정에서 시민들이 생각하는 건강문제와 보건 서비스 요구도를 정확히 파악하고 이를 대구광역시의 중장기 보건의료 종합계획 수립에 반영하고자 함을 목적으로 하였다. 시민참여단을 구성하여 2차례의 시민원탁회의를 실시하였으며, 시민원탁회의는 고객여정지도, DVDM (Definition, Value, Difficulty, Method) Map, 페르소나 기반 시나리오법을 통해 진행하였다. 시민들은 건강수준 향상을 위한 방안으로 보건 서비스 접근성 확대, 소생활권 중심 보건 서비스, 정신건강 서비스 확대, 건강 친화적 환경조성, 환경오염 개선, 사회적 건강개선을 제안하였으며, 건강 격차를 줄이는 방안으로는 건강 취약계층의 소통 향상 및 사회적 환경조성, 보건의료에 대한 접근성 향상, 쾌적한 물리적 공간, 사회적 역할 수행이 필요하다고 하였다. 본 연구 결과는 기존의 설문조사를 통한 주민요구도 조사와 달리 실제 주민들의 생각과 요구를 상세히 파악할 수 있었다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 향후 지역보건사업의 기획과 수행과정에서 주민참여 수준의 단계를 평가하고, 보다 다양한 시민들의 의견을 적용할 수 있도록 주민참여 제도화 기반 수립을 위한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것이다.

Background: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in Korea. To reduce cancer incidence, the Korean National Cancer Center (KNCC) has been expanding its organized cancer screening program. In addition, there are opportunistic screening programs that can be chosen by individuals or their healthcare providers. The purpose of this study was to investigate factors associated with participation in organized and opportunistic cancer screening programs, with a particular focus on socioeconomic factors. Materials and Methods: We used data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), a cross-sectional nationwide study conducted by the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare from 2007 to 2011. The study included information from 9,708 men and 12,739 women aged 19 years or over. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was conducted, adjusting for age, year of data collection, residential region, current smoking status, current alcohol consumption status, exercise, marriage status, job status, perceived health status, stress level, BMI, limitation of activities, cancer history, health insurance type, and private insurance status, to investigate the association between education level, economic status, and cancer screening participation. Results: In terms of education level, disparities in attendance were observed only for the opportunistic screening program. In contrast, there was no association between education level and participation in organized screening. In terms of economic status, disparities in opportunistic screening participation were observed at all income levels, but disparities in organized screening participation were observed only at the highest income level. Conclusions: Our findings reveal that socioeconomic factors, including educational level and economic status, were not significantly associated with participation in organized cancer screening, except at the highest level of income.
