KDI School of Public Policy and Management opened on Friday an English-language website which provides information on South Korea’s economic development process.

The total information system K-developedia (www.kdevelopedia.org) contains data published by local and international research institutes and international organizations such as the World Bank and United Nations.

All the information including research data, photographs and video materials are offered for free at the website. Data originally published in Korean will be translated into English and digitalized to fit the website.

“The website will contribute to the establishment of a systemized and advanced official development assistance in Korea as well as that of the international society by directly being used in ODA for underdeveloped nations,” said an official at KDI School through statement.
