This special lecture lasted for about 120 minutes under the theme ‘Diplomatic Roles for Sustainable Development of Africa (focusing on the case Sierra Leone)’. Ambassador Kathos Jibao Mattai spoke about policy directions for attaining the UN’s sustainable development goals (SDGs) and diplomatic roles such as cooperation of neighboring countries needed during that process.
Last year, Rwandan Ambassador to Korea Emma Isumbingabo and Zambian Ambassador to Korea Wylbur Chisiya SIMUUSA also spoke at YU. Ambassadors from various nations to Korea are visiting YU to share their policies and exchange opinions on Saemaul international development with international students at the Park Chung Hee School one after the other.
YU Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul Dean Kim Gi-soo explained, “For students who will work as international development and regional development experts after graduating, sharing development policies and examples pursued by different nations will be very important.” He added, “Listening to lectures by leaders of diplomatic envoys who are sent to various countries and engage in international cooperation work and make policy decisions will be a valuable asset for them.”
Meanwhile, the YU Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul is inviting various ambassadors to Korea to hold special lectures on official development assistance (ODA), international development cooperation, and development experiences to share the international development cases of various countries.
