과학과 외교의 융합 : 우리나라 과학기술외교의 발전 방향
Transnational and convergent issues of today raise a fundamental global challenge to our diplomacy and global governance. Therefore, the role of Science&Technology Diplomacy utilizing advanced science technologies such as artificial intelligence(AI), Blockchain, and Quantum Computing are being emphasized on a global scale. Climate change and non-traditional security issues cannot be addressed with traditional governance and diplomatic procedures. Given this, response to such issues through sharing and applying scientific technology knowledge is required much more than ever before. In this session, we will look at global trends in the Science&Technology Diplomacy and discuss the future direction of Korea’s Science&Technology Diplomacy. To this end, the Director-General for Climate Change, Energy, Environment and Scientific Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who is coordinating the Science &Technology Diplomacy at the forefront of diplomacy, will moderate this session, inviting relevant government officials, prominent scholars, experts, and participants.
