  • This survey was conducted to investigate the perception on environmental education by teachers, the current situation of environmental education including problems faced by them in teaching environmental education in the primary and secondary schools. Questions in the survey are designed to aid the development of an environmental education program on trees and forests for teachers to use in their instruction of environmental education. Eight hundred teachers were chosen as a sample in the survey and some of them were again invited to a workshop on environmental education afterwards. In the workshop the survey result was discussed in order to make it more meaningful for program development. The process of environmental education program development, which is sponsored by UNDP and the Korean Government, will be shared with the participants of the conference.

  • This paper explains concepts and methods of indexes measuring gender gaps. There are mainly 4 indexs, GDI, GEM, GII and GGI. UNDP developed GDI, GEM and GII. WEF developed GGI. Each index has its own strengths and weak points. Therefore it is important to understand each index in detail. For Korea, as men and women have been developed equally in areas of education and health, the GDI score was in a high group. However, the GEM and GGI scores were low. This implies that in order to reduce gender gaps, it is necessary to expand gender equality policies empowering economic and political empowerment.

  • 원자력을 산업에 이용하기 위한 대전위방사선가공처리 시범시설이 우리나라에 세워진다. 한국원자력연구소(소장. 윤용길박사)는 국제연합개발계획(UNDP)의 특별기금 약 50만 달러의 지원과 내자 약 3억원을 들여 올해부터 4개년 계획으로 이 시범 시설을 세워 운영키로 했다.이 「매머드」시설이 세워지면 방사선가공기술의 연구개발및 이의 활용이 활발해져 국내산업에 기여도가 클 것으로 전망되고 있다. 특히 관계자들은 수출입국을 지향하고 있는 국내공업발전에도 막대한 힘이 될 것이라 말하고 있는데 이 방사선가공처리 시범시설의 설치에 관한 전모를 살펴보면 다음과 같다.

  • United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) introduced the Adaptation Policy Framework (APF) to support the developing countries in order to help to make adaptation policy and strategy to climate change. This study provides the summary of the APF and will help for preparing policy regarding the impact of climate change and its adaptation. APF consists of five basic and two cross-cutting steps. Five basic steps are made of (a) defining project scope and design, (b) assessing current vulnerability and adaptation, (c) assessing future climate-related risks, (d) developing an adaptation strategy, and (e) continuing the adaptation process. Cross-cutting steps consist of engaging stakeholder and enhancing adaptive capacity. The project scope and design process includes four major tasks: scope the project and define its objectives, establish the project team, review and synthesize existing information on vulnerability and adaptation, and design the APF project. The main purpose of assessing current vulnerability and adaptation is to understand the characteristics of current climate-related vulnerability in priority systems and the scope of adaptive responses. Future climate-related risks are assessed in order to characterize future climate-related risks, so that adaptation policies and measures can be designed to reduce the system's exposure to future climate hazard. In developing an adaptation strategy, all of the preceding APF-related work is synthesized into a well-considered strategy that can direct real adaptation action. Continuing the adaptation process is in order to implement and sustain the APF-strategy, polices, and measure. The purpose of involvement of stakeholders is to communicate between individuals and groups about projects. Finally, enhancing adaptive capacity provides guidance on how adaptive capacity can be assessed and enhanced.

  • Entrepreneurship development has increasingly become a global solution to address the problem of rising unemployment. Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) have become important tools in improving the economic performance and social well-being of nations. When universities and industry work together to push the boundaries of knowledge, they become a powerful engine for innovation and economic growth. This paper is based on focus group interviews and discussions conducted with key players involved in the HIT-Sandown-UNDP Business Incubation Programme in Harare Zimbabwe. The business incubation project sought to support young Zimbabweans to transform their technical prototypes into commercially and socially viable ventures. As a result, a total of 10 prototypes were refined and investor ready business plans were developed for capital sourcing purposes. It was only through the coming together of the partners that real transformation of the lives of the participants was achieved through learning valuable business skills, coaching and mentoring. University-industry partnerships are a useful vehicle of setting up sustainable business incubation centres.

  • 최근의 대기확산 모델링은 도시규모 뿐만 아니라 동북아지역의 대기오염물질 장거리이동 현상을 다루는 빈도가 매우 높아졌다. 모델링을 위해서는 기상자료와 배출량자료를 준비하는 것이 매우 중요한 과정이다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 주도로 수행중인 '동북아 장거리이동 대기오염물질 공동 조사사업(LTP project)'과 관련하여 모델링분야의 공동 수행과제인 SO$_2$ 및 NOx 배출량 산정에 관한 것을 소개하였다. UNDP가 제안한 배출원 목록 수립방법을 이용하여 1998년에 대한 1$^{\circ}$$\times$ 1$^{\circ}$ 간격의 격자형 자료가 산정되었으며, 향후 LTP project의 모델링분야에서 활용될 예정이다. (중략)

  • This paper deals with challenges of Mongolian government regarding Economic Development Plan (hereafter EDP). EDP has a long history, appearing first in the socialist countries, then in European countries following the European Reconstruction Plan after the Second World War, and then in many developing countries after they gained independence from the colonial rule. Major challenges of the Mongolian EDP are largely related to the absence or lack of integrated approach. We will propose a new integrated framework based on the approach suggested by UNDP. The new framework consists of 5 core areas; 1) institutions and governance, 2) evidence-based and empirically backed policy options, 3) development of budgeting and financial system, 4) and monitoring and evaluation (M&E), 5) capacity development. In order to identify challenges in Mongolia, the new integrated approach was applied to diagnose current states. To understand current states of EDP in Mongolia, survey regarding EDP in Mongolia was conducted for the 43 officials of Ministry of Finance. The same approach was applied for Five-Year Economic Development Plans in Korea to compare performances with EDP in Mongolia. On the basis of comparative analysis of EDPs in Mongolia and Korea, some lessons are suggested.
