MAGAZINE KOICA : On Air | ODA: Stopping It Will Lead to Even Greater Costs

Through an interview with Carsten Staur, Chair of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), we take a closer look at the present and future of Official Development Assistance (ODA). He expresses concern over the reduction of ODA budgets in some countries and emphasizes that today’s investment is, in fact, a cost-saving measure that helps prevent future crises. He stresses that international development cooperation must never come to a halt in order to address climate change, support fragile states, and reduce inequality. Alongside the Republic of Korea’s experience in transitioning from an aid recipient to a donor country, the role of KOICA is also highlighted. KOICA supports the sustainable development of developing countries and is driving change across various sectors, including climate, health, education, and governance. KOICA’s field experience has become an important reference for the international community, and KOICA is working with global partners to pursue more effective development cooperation. The world is paying close attention to KOICA’s next steps.
