James F. Evans Collection, In: Gajendra Singh, J.H. de Goede, eds. Proceedings of the International Conference on Rural Development Technology : an Integrated Approach, June 21-24, 1977, Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok, Thailand: Asian Institute of Technology, 1977. p. 725-732., Rural development can be described as an integrated approach to improve the quality of life of the people in the rural community by means of not only physical development but also human resources development with a strong policy as a national program. In order to achieve rural development effectively, it is necessary to integrate every governmental agency and institution as well as civil organizations to focus their attention on all multi-dimensional elements for rural prosperity. In this point of view, the integrated rural development program in Korea called Saemaul Undong (New Village Movement), which is first priority of the national action program, will be suitable example for a case study to those who are interested in the field.
