Q. How useful the WB pages are
compared to Wikipedia description?

 
     THE WORLD BANK page is interested in the drunken classes excluded from the social development process. And THE WORLD BANK wants to create an institution that helps everyone have power so that the weak can reflect their opinions in the development process. In 2016, the Commission sought to prepare for environmental and social risks by approving the Environmental and Social Frame Work (ESF) that promotes sustainable development, focusing on the poorest and most vulnerable environments, such as natural resource management. As such, THE WORLD BANK is striving to promote economic growth and improve the quality of life.
 
     Wikipedia primarily serves as a community where knowledge can be shared. Wikipedia gives many people a chance to learn knowledge as long as they have access to Wikipedia, which is equal to everyone and provides a variety of information.
 
     I think both THE WORLD BANK and Wikipedia help social development, but there is a difference in the categories of people they target. THE WORLD BANK targets people from a slightly more vulnerable class and Wikipedia targets those who are economically superior to THE WORLD BANK. And I think there is a difference in the roles and areas that I play. Comparing the two, Wikipedia is relatively focused on the structure of THE WORLD BANK, if it is more focused on information transmission and education.
 
     I accessed THE WORLD BANK page this time and saw a blog post containing the voice of the vice president of the Middle East and North Africa World Bank Group. The recent Korona 19 epidemic has left many people suffering and maintaining social distance around the world, but the solidarity is finding ways to help them out of this crisis without physical contact, which it says is ironic but touching. And the most impressive phrase in the article was 'Human solidarity is the strongest defense against human suffering.' In addition, the article said THE WORLD BANK will work on a project to solve the Korona 19 virus epidemic and help the most vulnerable country.

     What activity was most impressive and why was introduced on the THE WORLD BANK page?

    I wonder if you think Korea's HDI is not high. I agree that it is difficult to assess social development with GDP alone. I think the country where people's quality of life is guaranteed has truly achieved social development. Norway, Switzerland and Ireland ranked first, second and third, respectively, while South Korea ranked 22nd, according to the ranking of the human development index as of 2019. This post made me want to learn about the policies of countries with high HDI.

W4. Millennium Development Goals / Lee Se Hyun

Summary The Millennium Development Goals were established under the International Development Goals. Millennium Development Goals, or MDGs, sought 191 U.N. member states and more than 22 international organizations to achieve their goals by 2015. MDGs have promoted the development of the international community. Poverty, hunger eradication, universal education level, gender equality, disease, environment and development of developing countries were targeted. However, it has been criticized for lack of legitimacy, neglect of female inequality in employment, and uneven achievement rate, but it has contributed a lot to many equal development. Interesting point I knew that international politics was carried out in a complex and selfish atmosphere. However, upon encountering the MDGs, I learned that the international community is making great efforts to ensure human rights. Among the MDG criticisms, criticism of women's inequality was interesting. The phenomenon of female ineq...

What is meant by that? / Lee hayoung

Q. Society is not determined by technology, nor is technology determined by society. Both emerge as two sides of the sociotechnical coin. What is meant by that? A. So to begin with, I think that society and technology are the relationships that influence each other, the concepts that one cannot include or dominate. There is technology in society, and technology exists because there is society. I think it's an inseparable relationship, so I think it can be expressed in both sides of a coin.

W10. Human_rights / Lee Se Hyun

Summary Human rights are the basic right to live as a person. This is an absolute domain. Applicable regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, or location and guaranteed by international law. Human rights have been modified and established over a long period of time. From ancient times to the post-World War II international human rights treaties, various changes and considerations continued. Since the 1966 Human Rights Treaty, the concept of human rights has been established and human rights are guaranteed at the international level through the UN, an international organization. Also, various efforts are made to ensure human rights in the community. Human rights organizations are established in continental units such as Africa, America, Asia, and Europe, to strive for the self-reliance of the vulnerable classes and countries. Human beings have studied human rights for a long time. Thus, the theory of human rights exists, and there are various views on human rights. Interesting point ...
