21세기 새로운 고등교육의 패러다임: 지구적 문제 해결을 위한 대학의 사회적 책임과 지구적 연대

This study seeks to explain university social responsibility and global partnership as a global effort to tackle various global issues such as under education, poverty, climate change, pandemic, etc. Since its inception, modern universities had three main missions of research, education, and public service. They pursued an ideal of producing public society for human society as a whole, not just their own private interests. In doing so, they actively engaged in both local and global society by developing their sense of social responsibility: an attempt to recognize problems human society has faced and actively search for their solutions. Entering into the 21st century, many people began to emphasize that university social responsibility be extended to the global level. In fact, many universities in the world now increase their role in resolving global issues in global society. They are actively endeavoring to reduce poverty, improve public health, expand primary education and higher education opportunity at the global level, Under such circumstances, United Nations Academic Impact(UNAI) was established with the initiative of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. UNAI will function as an important platform where universities around world can effectively form a global partnership for contributing to resolving global issues.
