| Title | The Motivations of South Korea's ODA to Africa |
| Summary | Along with the rapid expansion of the Southern partners in the international development cooperation, the world of foreign aid is observing a number of countries raising their aid volumes and level of engagement with the African countries. Seeking to play a big role in the international community, South Korea is also rapidly increasing its Official Development Assistance (ODA) volume with the particular focus on Africa. In fact, the volume of South Korean ODA to Africa increased tenfold in a dozen of years. In this context, by critically reflecting the statements of the South Korean government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and how they address the increasing ODA to Africa from the donor’s perspective, this thesis analyzes the main motivations of the recent rapid increase in South Korean ODA allocation to Africa. |
