ABSTRACT

Recent earthquake in Haiti, Japan, Turkey, and China, caused a huge property damage and the number of casualties. International community developed the joint efforts to support for disaster recovery and reconstruction including dispatching rescue teams, and sending relief supplies such as medical supplies, and food. According to the UN Security Council Resolution, the Republic of Korea dispatched the reconstruction support group, Danbi, to support both public recovery and civil reconstruction including road and building restoration, medical and water supply support. This study is aimed to contribute to the support services of overseas dispatch by analyzing the case and deriving the success factors of Danbi. For this, activities of the first and second Danbi from Feb 6 to Dec 31 in 2010, were analyzed by using frameworks for success factors of overseas dispatch(METT+TC). As a result of the analysis, Haiti reconstruction support group(Danbi) was Republic of Korea's first international dispatch for large-scale disaster and the mission was successfully accomplished. The first success factor was a rapid decision of the government and Congress, and the integrated supports according to the characteristics of the local situation. Second was the development of effective civil operations which considered the conditions of the local residents and the tendency. Third was a wide range of exchanges and cooperations with dispatched foreign troops. However, sufficient preparation for early missions and formation of personnel and equipment based on the local characteristics were required. Thus, if additional improvements are made based on the case of Haiti reconstruction support group, Danbi, it is considered that the successful mission could afford when foreign large-scale disaster occurs.
