Abstract

ABSTRACT

The Korea International Cooperation Agency’s Pacific Asia Society Youth Corps (KOICA-PYC) is a global volunteer organization that has dispatched college students to the Asia Pacific region for more than the past two decades. This study explores how executive board members of the KOICA-PYC evaluate Korean college students during their summer vacations. This study specifically asks how the executive board members view their college students’ development of ideas regarding the social and cultural development of global society through volunteer experiences in the greater Asia Pacific region and how these experiences increase their understanding of global citizenship. The findings show that the participants perceived both positive influences from and challenges to the promotion of global citizenship and multiculturalism. This study discusses the nexus between global citizenship and cultural dominance, as well as the prospects of multicultural education in Korea. It also provides implications for larger issues of culture and education in contemporary global society, calling on future scholars to pay close attention to the meanings of global volunteer work in their own geographical and regional contexts.

促进全球公民和容忍in higher education):韩国国际合作署全球志愿in the Asia Pacific region(促进多元文化和公民全球高等教育:志愿服务全球的韩国国际合作署在亚太地区)
摘要韩国国际协力团下属的太平洋亚洲协会青年团(KOICA-PYC)是一个在过去20多年里向亚太地区派遣大学生的全球性志愿者组织。本研究探讨KOICA-PYC执行董事会成员如何在暑假期间评估韩国大学生。本研究特别询问了执行委员会成员如何看待他们的大学生通过在大亚太地区的志愿者经历对全球社会的社会和文化发展的想法的发展,以及这些经历如何增加他们对全球公民的理解。研究结果表明,参与者既认识到促进全球公民意识和多元文化主义的积极影响,也认识到促进全球公民意识和多元文化主义的挑战。本研究探讨全球公民与文化优势之间的关系,以及韩国多元文化教育的前景。它还为当代全球社会中更大的文化和教育问题提供了启示,呼吁未来的学者密切关注全球志愿工作在他们自己的地理和区域背景下的意义。
