개발원조위원회 (DAC)가입 이후의 한국의 대외원조 정책과제

Korea s ODA Policy Agenda after Joing the OECD/DAC

Korea became the 24th member state of Development Assistance Committee(OECD/DAC) in November 2009. It draws huge attention because it is, among others, the first case that a former recipient country joined the exclusive donor club. However, Korea now has to deal with the demands to meet the international norms and responsibilities from both donors and recipients. This paper aims to probe the policy agenda for South Korea after joining the OECD/DAC. A wide range of aid policy issues that the Korean government, NGO activists, and scholars of international development cooperation have raised are selected. For each issue, the level of research and opposing arguments are analyzed, and the author s view is supplemented. Instead of simply listing every policy agenda debated so far, this paper chooses prior agenda such as people s awareness of ODA, the efficiency of aid implementation institutions, the volume, the tied aid issue, civil society partnership, integrated evaluation process, and Korean ODA Model and etc.
