Supporting international students from developing countries at the Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul
Pursuing international development cooperation projects with international cooperation organizations in Africa through YU’s global network
Presenting a new industry-academic cooperation model of universities-businesses-international cooperation organizations for ‘synergy effects’
At 11 a.m. on the 9th, Mr. Park Gwang-beom met with YU President CHOI Oe-chool and donated 100 million KRW expressing his wish to help with the development of the university. The development fund donated by Mr. Park will be used to support international students at the Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul.
Mr. Park stated, “We have been maintaining good relations with YU through international development cooperation projects through the global network built by YU. The global human network possessed by the university was very helpful for us to continuously pursue health and welfare improvement projects in developing countries as a specialized medical technology company.” He added, “We will do our best to support the fostering of experts in Saemaul and international development that the YU Park Chung Hee School of Policy and Saemaul is aiming for.”
The development fund donation was the result from the partnership in the international development cooperation project that is being pursued together with YU. Megagen Impact entered a trilateral MOU with YU and LVRLACC (Lake Victoria Region Local Authorities & Counties Cooperation), which is an international cooperation organization of three African nations back in 2018.
This MOU was made possible through the global network built by YU, and it drew great interest from society as a new type of industry-academic cooperation model in which a Korean university and company pursued international development cooperation projects together with international cooperation organizations. Megagen Implant, which possesses world-class medical technologies, is pursuing public health and welfare improvement projects in Eastern Africa.
