우리나라 통합물관리 지표(SDG6.5.1)의 이행 현황과 전망 = Current status and prospects of Korea’s implementation of the integrated water resources management indicator (SDG 6.5.1)

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to assess and improve Korea's integrated water management governance by focusing on the SDG 6.5.1 indicator, as outlined in the latest 2024 report published by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The analysis is structured around four key components: (1) global implementation trends of the SDG 6.5.1 indicator, (2) Korea’s year-by-year performance and structural characteristics, (3) category-based comparison and SWOT analysis, and (4) formulation of policy recommendations. While Korea achieved high scores in institutional arrangements and policy frameworks, limitations were identified in local implementation capacity, diversification of financial mechanisms, and the internalization of participatory governance. Globally, the progress toward achieving SDG 6.5.1 remains insufficient, suggesting that current trends may fall short of the 2030 target. Therefore, the study calls for mid- to long-term strategies that go beyond short-term performance-driven approaches. Furthermore, the study highlights the potential of the SDG 6.5.1 indicator not only as a reporting tool but also as a framework for evaluating national water policies and facilitating international cooperation.
