Attempting to do so in a nation that has witnessed fundamental and dynamic change is even more challenging. The Asia Foundation is unique among FOR foreign private organizations in Korea in that it has maintained a presence here for more than 60 years, and, throughout, has responded to the tumultuous and vibrant times by adapting to Korea’s own transformation. The achievement of this balance, CHANGE adapting to changing needs and assisting in the preservation of Korean identity while simultaneously responding to regional and global trends, has made The Asia Foundation’s work in SIX DECADES of Korea singular.

ICLEI is proud to have enlarged its presence and capacity to support East Asian cities in their sustainability efforts and to engage them in our programs. The ICLEI East Asia Secretariat has launched two programs this past year. The Energy-safe Cities East Asia program works with three cities each from China, Japan and South Korea and one Mongolian city to explore with which currently available technologies and at what costs the cities could transform their urban energy systems to become low-carbon, low-risk and resilient – practically 100% renewable – by the year 2030. True, it is an ambitious approach, but how can we make a difference if we are not ambitious? After one and a half year of preparations we have launched the program with a first experts symposium held in Beijing in October 2014. As a precursor of a Green Public Procurement program for Chinese cities we have organized EcoProcura© China 2014, an international symposium in Beijing that brought experts from the Chinese government, international organizations, Chinese as well as foreign cities together for an exchange of information, practices and experiences. We have been present at key events in China and spurred attention to resilience in urban planning and management and brisked up the discussion on car-centered urban development by calling for EcoMobility-oriented planning.

  • Conservation Studies of Korean Stone Heritages
    Conservation Studies of Korean Stone Heritages Chan Hee Lee Department of Cultural Heritage Conservation Sciences, Kongju National University, Gongju, 32588, Republic of Korea Keywords: Korean stone heritages, Conservation, Weathering, Damage, Environmental control. Abstract: In Republic of Korea, a peninsula country located at the eastern region of the Asian continent, is mostly composed of granite and gneiss. The southern Korean peninsula stated approximately 7,000 tangible cultural heritages. Of these, the number of stone heritages are 1,882 (26.8%), showing a diverse types such as stone pagoda (25.8%), stone Buddha statues (23.5%), stone monuments (18.1%), petroglyph, dolmen, fossils and etc. Igneous rock accounts for the highest portion of the stone used for establishing Korean stone heritages, forming approximately 84% of state-designated cultural properties. Among these, granite was used most often, 68.2%, followed by diorite for 8.2%, and sandstone, granite gneiss, tuff, slate, marble, and limestone at less than 4% each. Furthermore, values of the Korean stone heritages are discussed as well as various attempts for conservation of the original forms of these heritages. It is generally known that the weathering and damage degrees of stone heritage are strongly affected by temperature and precipitation. The most Korean stone heritages are corresponded to areas of middle to high weathering according to topography and annual average temperature and precipitation of Korea. Therefore, examination of environmental control methods are required for conservation considering the importance of stone heritages exposed to the outside conditions, and monitoring and management systems should be established for stable conservation in the long term.

The focus of the research is the significance of dependence for communities to survive and adapt in times of environmental disasters. It shifts the emphasis on self-reliant communities for survival and examines the types and effects of dependence and external linkages by analyzing the range of community responses that include initial responses, early social impact, compensation, and conflicts after the Hebei-Spirit oil spill in December 2007 in Korea. The findings reveal that dependence is necessary, and the effects of dependence can be both positive and negative depending on the relations between external entities and affected communities as well as the community capacity to absorb resources and information. Key Words: community adaptation; community dependence; resource; Hebei-Spirit; knowledge; oil spill INTRODUCTION and negative depending on the relations between external How do communities adapt to new environmental disasters? entities and affected communities. A paradigm within the literature on disaster management and climate change adaptation is the promotion of self-reliance BACKGROUND and self-sufficiency, for communities to initiate action to Though the advocacy of community-initiated disaster prevent and prepare for disasters and to determine for preparedness and adaptation is important to increasing themselves how to manage and adapt to disasters and climate adaptive capacity and sharing local knowledge, local-centered change (Allen 2006).

  • A Collaborative Trans-Regional R&D Strategy for the South Korea Green New Deal to Achieve Future Mobility
    sustainability Article A Collaborative Trans-Regional R&D Strategy for the South Korea Green New Deal to Achieve Future Mobility Doyeon Lee and Keunhwan Kim * Division of Data Analysis, Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), 66, Hoegi-ro, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul 02456, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, South Korea is moving to establish a national industry strategy to reduce regional inequalities within the country through the Green New Deal. Thus, it is important to closely integrate the aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the Green New Deal with that of reducing deepening regional inequality from the Regionally Balanced New Deal. To accomplish these dual aims, this study provides a collaborative trans-regional R&D strategy and a precise framework with three key dimensions: regional, technological, and organizational. We demonstrate that future mobility is the most important project of the Green New Deal, comprising 1963 nationally funded projects worth USD 1285.4 million. We also illustrate the level of government investment in nationally funded research projects related to future mobility for 17 different regions and seven different technology clusters related to future mobility, and determine which research organizations played an important role in each cluster for all 17 regions between 2015 and 2020. Our results indicate that the capital region and Daejeon have high innovation capability in many future mobility-related research fields, whereas some regions have capabilities in specific research fields such as hydrogen infrastructure, indicating their relative competitiveness.

Observations, Recommendations, and Conclusion ………....................................................p40 Disaster Management in Korea by So Eun Park | May 5, 2015 Ⅰ. Executive Summary To many Koreans, the concept of disaster management will be relatively new and unfamiliar since people often thought of disasters as destiny, and as the government historically did not put much effort into “managing” disasters with an effective system. It is only after Sewol ferry incident of 2014 that Koreans began to realize how important it is to effectively manage disasters, which can happen anytime, anywhere, without warning. In recent years, the Korean government has taken steps to improve the country’s disaster management system, first by establishing the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) in 2004, and then by replacing NEMA with the newly-created Ministry of Public Safety and Security (MPSS) in 2014. However, to the author, it is unclear as to whether the government is ready to admit the mistakes of the past, learn from the past tragedies, and really try to change the country’s approach to emergency management.
