  • Official development assistance (ODA) projects are conducted under the auspices of donor countries and on the principle of time-limited implementation for economic development and welfare improvement in a host country. Exit strategies on how to end official assistance are therefore crucial. Sudden economic recession in a donor country could lead to the suspension of ODA projects, which would affect diplomatic relations and project outcomes. Further, exit strategies can help continue the original project and create links with other ODA projects. This study shows how to employ exit strategies in the Korea-Mongolia Greenbelt Plantation Project and has implications for sustainability of development assistance. Exist strategies were not taken into consideration initially. In the course of implementation and management transfer upon the completion of plantation, various facets were considered later on in developing exit strategies. An ideal exit strategy is to reach the extent to which a host country no longer needs official assistance or has capacity of project implementation on its own. A year-by-year transfer of planted areas can be a phase-over strategy. The Korea Forest Service fulfilled transparent cooperation with Mongolian local governments, established appropriate arrangements with stakeholders, secured institutional and financial foundation for follow-up management by a host country, and realized predictability, responsibility, and sustainability. As a local institution, the plantation technology management center has been established for follow-up activities such as the introduction of agro-forestry. When the Korea Forest Service designed an urban forest project as an exit strategy, sustainability was ensured, which has implications in implementing other ODA projects.

  • 1997년 교토의정서 체결과 같은 국제적 차원의 환경관련 규제와 관심이 고조됨에 따라, 많은 연구들이 효과적으로 친환경성을 평가할 수 있는 도구나 기술의 필요성을 강조해왔다. 본 연구는 건설 프로젝트의 친환경성을 평가하는 도구의 일환으로 건설현장의 폐기물 관리 성과 평가 툴을 구축하고자 한다. 이 평가 툴의 목적은 폐기물 저감 및 재활용 확대 측면에서 건설현장의 폐기물 관리 성과가 어느 정도 수준인지 정량적으로 평가하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 평가 툴을 구축하기 위한 기반으로서, 선행연구에서 파악된 폐기물 관리 성과 요인의 성과 수준을 정량적으로 산정하기 위해 전문가 면담 및 설문을 통해 각 요인별 관리 행위 수준과 이들의 중요도를 파악하였다. 또한, 선행연구에서 제시한 평가 툴 구축 개념을 기반으로 실질적으로 전산화된 평가 툴을 개발하여 개별 건설현장 차원에서의 평가가 용이하도록 했다. 특히, 평가의 결과로서 제시되는 최종지표(TI) 및 지표등급(IR)은 건설현장의 폐기물 관리 수준을 정량적으로 비교 평가할 수 있는 기준이 될 수 있다. 폐기물 관리 성과 평가 툴은 건설현장의 폐기물 관리효과를 증진시키기 원하는 시공자 측면뿐만 아니라, 발주자 측면에서도 일정정도의 폐기물 관리수준을 객관적으로 요구할 수 있으므로 그 활용범위가 넓을 것으로 판단된다. 실제 현장에서의 적용가능성과 신뢰도를 검증하는 등의 세부적인 연구가 뒤따른다면 보다 효과적인 건설폐기물 관리방안이 될 수 있을 것이다.

  • Purpose - The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of macroeconomic conditions on the relationship between CSR and firm value. Design/methodology/approach - Employing KEJI index as a proxy for a firm's CSR activities, we investigate whether investors discount the value of CSR activity during the economic recession when a firm's bankruptcy risk is high and thus its future sustainability is suspected. Findings - Our empirical result represents that the value of a firm with high CSR score is undervalued during recession, reflecting investors doubt the sustainability of a firm whose CSR score is high when overall economy is exposed to high downside risk. Research implications or Originality - It implies that investors may not regard the CSR activities as an indicator of corporate sustainability. Also, the result represents that stable macroeconomic condition can be one of the important factors to make the CSR activity increase a firm's value.

  • In recent years, the demand for green buildings is growing fast due to legislative and social pressures. Construction organizations, which play an important role in promoting building industry growth, are facing with challenges on how to adapt themselves to enhance sustainability of the buildings. In this paper, the green value chain and system frameworks, an extend application of Porter's value chain and system models, are introduced. Based on deep analysis of the green value chain and system frameworks, a revolution model for construction organizations towards green building is created. Management factors critical for a successful green building project, at the firm and project organization level, are extracted. Furthermore, external critical relationships are also identified. Fully understanding of these management factors and the model can help and enable practitioner to know what new capabilities should be deployed and developed in the long run for maximizing sustainability.

  • 기업은 자신들의 경제 환경 사회적 영향 및 성과에 대해 설명책임의 수단으로 '지속가능성보고서'를 발간하고 있다. 법적 규제인 재무 공시와는 달리 '지속가능성' 보고는 비재무적 요소에 대한 기업들의 성과를 보고하는 것이기에 이에 대한 신뢰성은 기업에 의존할 수밖에 없다. 그러나 현재 발간되는 지속가능성보고서는 지표 데이터에 대한 증거나 출처를 포함할 수 없는 유형으로, 기업의 홍보 수단으로 여겨지는 경향이 있으며 신뢰성에 대한 의혹이 여러 차례 제기되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 업무에 대한 내용과 맥락이 담긴 기록으로 기업의 설명책임을 입증할 수 있도록 증거기반 설명책임에 대한 개념을 적용해 보았다. 증거기반 설명책임이란 행위에 대한 증거 기록을 생산 및 축적하고 이용가능한 정보로 관리하여 설명책임으로 활용하는 것이다. 국내 기업에서 발간한 지속가능성보고서의 지표데이터 유형과 영국 보다폰의 웹 기반 보고서 사례를 살펴보고, 업무 기록을 지표 데이터의 증거로 연결할 방안에 대해 연구해보았다. 이를 위해 필요한 기록을 증거로 확보할 수 있도록 기록의 생산체계를 재설계하였다. 업무 중 생산된 기록을 SR(Social Responsibility)설명책임정보로 취합 및 관리하고 이해관계자에게 제공할 수 있는 SR시스템(Social Responsibility System)과 기록관리시스템(RMS)의 연계 구축을 제안하였다. 또한 조직체계 및 규정을 통해 기업의 전문적인 기록관리 체계를 단계적으로 구축하고 관련 업무 담당자와의 협업을 통해 기업의 신뢰성 있는 설명책임을 지원할 수 있는 인프라 구축을 이야기했다.

  • Education for Sustainable Development(ESD) is inclined to become popular topics in EE related debates, almost similar to populism, with declaration of UNESCO's Decade OF ESD (DESD). However we can't avoid that development in ESD practically means economic linear progress. Basically UN's declaration is to accomplish worldly task on human civilization, social & environmental problems, including ESSD. ESD is also important means for practicing ESSD, which has proved to be failure since Brutrant Report, owing to uncertain recognition of sustainability which should be something figured out by their surrounding circumstance or the conditions following its community culture, all same around the world. In this circumstance, we need certain identification on ESD globally recognized, no matter with the developing level of economy. But sustainability is usually managed or controlled by economically powered countries, by improving relatively under-development countries's economic conditions for equity. They believe under-development countries's env. problems can't be resolved without securing of economic equity. Under-development countries's economic equity can be come true ? even by another economic super powers. It really means just controlling or management by them. These all controlling process can't secure under-development countries's sustainability. Because it is not something just controlled, characterized as growing up by self-supporting system of ethnic or regional communities. So identification of sustainability in here is , not . Following its identification, we should discuss ESD, and furthermore for real ESD, there is powerful need to change it into ESE (Education for Sustainability & its Economy) to reflect this co-conceptional approach to ESD. And also we need to distinguish the educational contents boundaries among ESD and EE for this. Basically existing EE has been dealing with pollution-oriented or its related social comprehensive subjects, so it seems that EE is not familiar and harmony with ESD contents, however in alternative case I propose in this paper, changing into ESE, it could include almost all of ESD subjects, furthermore practically EE might be same with ESE.

  • Though their activities, companies have an impact on environmental problems and nature conservation. The accounting sector can play a role in environmental conservation efforts related to environmental costs, and the implemention of the Corporate Sustainability Management System (CSMS) could be a key factor that can improve the company's financial performance. This study aims to determine how green accounting through the application of CSMS can improve the financial performance of manufacturing companies in Indonesia, a developing country. The sampling method used was purposive sampling, while the research sample consisted of 38 companies that had followed PROPER and were indexed on the IDX. Data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method known as the Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The results of this study indicate that manufacturing companies in Indonesia are able to implement green accounting by allocating appropriate environmental costs by earmarking a portion to carry CSMS implementation so as to improve financial performance. People in Indonesia consider that manufacturing companies that have good company rankings in the evaluation program for company performance ratings in environmental management run by the Indonesian Ministry of Environment are in a position to generate customer loyalty, especially in financial performance.

  • Information power has been a major criterion for wealth disparity in human history, and since the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, referred to as the data economy era, personal information has also gained economic value. Additionally, companies collect and analyze customer information to use as a marketing tool, providing personalized services, making the collection of quality customer information crucial to a company's success. However, as the amount of data held by companies increases, crimes of stealing personal information for financial gain have surged, making corporate customer information a target for criminals. The leakage of personal information and its circumstances lead to a decline in corporate trust from the customer's perspective, threatening corporate sustainability with falling stock prices and decreased sales. Therefore, companies find themselves in a paradoxical situation where the utilization of personal information is increasing while the risk of personal information leakage is also growing. This study used the news big data analysis system, BIG KINDS, to analyze major keywords before and after media coverage on personal information leaks, examining domestic media coverage trends. Through this, we identified the impact of personal information leakage on corporate sustainability and analyzed the connection between personal information protection and sustainable corporate management. The results derived from this study are expected to serve as foundational data for companies seeking ways to enhance sustainable management while increasing the utilization of personal information.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify the guideline's contents for dietitians' knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) for the sustainability management at school foodservice. The contents for the guideline were determined by the Delphi technique of two rounds. The Delphi panels of experts were consisted of sixteen school dietitians and fourteen professors of food and nutrition with more than 10 years of experiences by convenience sampling method. Based on the literature, knowledge, attitudes, and practices required for dieticians were classified into menu management, procurement, food production, facility and energy management, waste management, personnel management, and nutrition education. Data were analyzed using SPSS for Windows version 24 and EXCEL to calculate descriptive statistics, content validity ratio, degree of agreement, and degree of convergence. As a result of the second round, the validity scores of 'knows eco-friendly certification standards and labeling systems (4.53 point)' in the knowledge category, and 'tries to purchase local agricultural products (4.87 point)' in the attitude category were the highest. From that round in the practice category, the validity scores of 'plan menus for students' health', 'purchases eco-friendly food', and 'conserves energy in pre-processing and cooking process' were the highest with 4.73 point. Applying the criteria for securing the validity of the contents, the contents of 25 knowledge items, 20 attitude items and 30 practice items were confirmed. The findings of the study can be used to develop the guideline for dietitians required for the sustainability management.
