DESCRIPTION:This research aims to explore possible ways to incorporate a h
 uman rights framework into South Korea’s future ODA policy. The research
  reviewed the evolution and meaning of ‘sustainable development’ and 
 ‘human rights-based approach to development’ and looked into the appro
 aches of donor countries to integrating human rights considerations into t
 heir ODA programmes. Particular attention was given to four donor countrie
 s - Sweden\, the United Kingdom\, Australia and Japan – to assess their 
 ODA policies and practices from a human rights perspective. The research p
 aper also examined the recent development of ODA framework of South Korea 
 and provided recommendations for the future inclusion of human rights pers
 pective in its development cooperation.\n\nDr. Emma Mawdsley\, Senior Lect
 urer\, Department of Geography will act as discussant.
